Default Female Avatars in Bio-Tech 4e vs. Transhuman Space: Bioroid Bazaar

Bioroid Bazaar:

Avatar (Female)
64 points
Attribute Modifiers: DX+1 [20]; HT+2 [20].
Advantages: Beautiful [12]; Resistant to Disease (+8) [5]; Voice [10].
Perks: Extreme Sexual Dimorphism 2 [2]*
Disadvantages: Shyness (Mild) [-5].
Features: Taboo Traits (Aggressiveness, p. 8; Genetic Defects; Mental Instability).
Date: 2061.
Cost: $127,000.

*Extreme Sexual Dimorphism
You have exaggerated male or female sexual attributes. This gives +1 to Sex Appeal – but also +1 to others’ attempts to identify you, and -1 to Disguise or Shadowing when trying to remain anonymous. You may purchase this perk up to three times; both the bonuses and the penalties are cumulative (i.e., Extreme Sexual Dimorphism 3 gives +3 to Sex Appeal and attempts at identification, and -3 to Disguise and Shadowing). Cosmetic surgery might grant this perk, especially given TL10 medical technology. However, opting for such an appearance is widely considered gauche in 2100.

Bio-Tech 4e:

Attribute Modifiers: HT+2 [20].
Advantages: Appearance (Handsome) [12]; Resistant to Disease (+8) [5].
Skills: Racial Skill Bonus (Sex Appeal +3) [6].
Quirks: Distinctive Features [-1].
Features: Taboo Traits (Genetic Defects, MentalInstability). Females also have Taboo Trait (Aggressiveness). Both sexes have exaggerated sexual characteristics: Males are blatantly muscular with abundant body and facial hair, while females are very curvaceous and have soft, delicate facial features.
Availability: $116,000, LC3. Sub-Races

Select one of these lenses:
Female Avatar (+24 points): DX+1 [20]; Voice [10]; Responsive [-1]; Shyness (Mild) [-5].

Do I keep Racial Skill Bonus (Sex Appeal +3) [6], Distinctive Features [-1], & Extreme Sexual Dimorphism 2 [2] or must I drop 1 or more of these?

Also, if a man has “Exaggerated sexual characteristics: Enhanced Male Primary Sexual Characteristics”, but not “blatantly muscular with abundant body and facial hair” which of the following or combo “Racial Skill Bonus (Sex Appeal +3) [6], Distinctive Features [-1], Extreme Sexual Dimorphism 1 or 2 or 3” would he have?
