Let be a dense subset of a forcing order . Then is dense in the product forcing order: below , choose in and retain . The generic filter meets it, so its first projection meets . Together with the filter properties proved above, this givesThe same argument proves that is -generic over , but genericity over the larger generic extension needs the next argument.
