A proposal to direct a show with 12 men is different from a proposal to direct a show with 12 characters whose genders will be largely determined by the auditioning pool.
Either is a valid artistic choice, but they're different proposals, and I'd have strong reservations about supporting the former, that I wouldn't have about the latter.
That doesn't mean I'm dictating to the director how to cast the show, exactly. It does mean I'd like some indication of which casting schema it's going to be, so I can decide how I feel about the proposal.
