Adobe purposely tanking photoshop features so we're forced to upgrade.

I pay for the newer version, I tried it. Every other feature was broken and ANY photo of a woman was considered inappropriate or prompted wrong, despite nothing even remotely so being the case. So I gave up and went back to the older version because it didnt act up, yet recently it's just incredibly janky and bad? The AI results are laughable when they were never like this before, so what? They're pulling an Apple and killing prior software to force their even worse new software?

That's usually a symptom of corrupted preferences. Reset Preferences in Photoshop

Photoshop is first & foremost an image editor, not an AI image generation tool. Firefly is OK for some things, but it will never be all things for all people.

As Nancy suggested, resetting preferences may help.

If it doesn't, try the cleaner tool https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

Does the Firefly site work for you? 

Do you have a decent Internet connection/speed?

How much skin was your rejected female showing?  I have been able to bypass the 'too much skin' restriction by copying the layer and removing questionable content.   Note: masking doesn't work.  You have to erase or Apply the mask.  I can't remember if the orginal layer has to be turned off, but it would be safer to do so.

Then turn the original layer off. Use Gen Fill and mask the the required pixels back in from the original layer.

I have incredible internet speed and connection rofl. almost 1g/s 
There is no questionable content. It's literally a woman holding her son wearing a t shirt and shorts, she wanted something in her hand removed and apparently, that is 5exual LOL. Why should we have to jump hoops for a very expensive software feature we pay for to decide that most of my clients (women) cannot be edited. Stable Diffusion will wipe out at this rate. Considering you cant even say what's bugging out anymore in the community forums because they block all those words is INSANE LOL what a stupid company, did they sell it recently or something? I never remember Adobe being this terrible and recently it's like they purposely tank their software so people want to move on.

AI-itis -- an over-inflated sense of what AI is and should be used for. 

For decades, Photoshop users have successfully removed & replaced unwanted elements from images without any assistance from AI.
