Good on you privileged old, white, male showing your misogyny as well as racism. Have you ever considered the other gendes inclusion perhaps being targeted with this program?

Does every camera have to be big, masculine and phallic?

I should point out (read my previous messages here, and also on the other 2 threads about the E-PL9), that I do not hold the same msogyny or racist views that you seem to detect.

I actually said in the others posts I disagree with others' apparent suggestion that those targeted Asian ladies are not so cluey, and I said that all those I know have brains, and that they would look at more than fashion. ... Check the messages I wrote out.

No one claimed that Asian women don't have brains. You are the one making a non sequitur argument and also doing a strawman (the claim was never that the market *only* cares about camera aesthetics but that it's of higher importance in those markets)

Let's break it down:

1) if a person values camera aesthetics/fashion, then he/she doesn't have brains.

2) the claim is Asian women value camera aesthetics/fashion

3) therefore it follows the people claiming #2 is claiming Asian women don't have brains

First of all your argument of #1 is not true, and even it was, the people claiming #2 do not necessarily agree. So the conclusion in #3 does not follow.

What would you call the practise of charging a high price for products with clearly very little substance in the main functions than competitors, due to the apparent lack of interest in technical details shown by a particular section of the buyers?  You can computer's what is meant by"brains" in this context. Hint: it's metaphoric.

What you wrote here and elsewhere seems to indicate a blind faith in Olympus and their strategy and products worth, apologising for your favourite brand consistently, regardless of what the facts are and therefore hardly worth reading. Bye. You have been blocked.
