Can you make any suggestions for a model that is good for general chat, and is not hyper-woke?

I’ve just had one of the base Llama-2 models tell me it’s offensive to use the word “boys” because it reinforces gender stereotypes. The conversation at the time didn’t even have anything to do with gender or related topics. Any attempt to get it to explain why it thought this resulted in the exact same screen full of boilerplate about how all of society is specifically designed to oppress women and girls. This is one of the more extreme examples, but I’ve had similar responses from a few other models. It’s as if they tried to force their views on gender and related matters into conversations, no matter what they were about. I find it difficult to believe this would be so common if the training had been on a very broad range of texts, and so I suspect a deliberate decision was made to imbue the models with these sorts of ideas.

I’m looking for something that isn’t politically or socially extreme in any direction, and is willing to converse with someone taking a variety of views on such topics.
