Use only your own photo or one you are authorized to edit. Do not use the result to harass, out, impersonate, or misgender someone. Be especially careful with minors and with sharing before-and-after images publicly.
Generative editors can reproduce stereotypes or alter skin tone, age, ethnicity, weight, and facial geometry without being asked. Compare the result against the source and reject any output that changes protected traits or physical identity outside the stated styling brief.
User agency and a bounded edit contract reduce the common failure where a filter changes the face, age, or body to force a stereotype.
The result remains flexible for makeup tests, wardrobe concepts, character art, or personal exploration while avoiding the unsupported claim that AI can identify gender from an image.
