From Sex Object to Gritty Woman: The Evolution of Women in Stock Photos
- ghaff 9y agoBased on the article, this is at least partly because of the availability of specifically curated collections. Someone still needed to choose to pay for the photos, but it probably does give a bit of a nudge to editors quickly selecting a photo to accompany an article. This article notes that a lot of the selected images are also still pretty stereotypical in various ways. So possibly a real trend but I'm not sure how much I would read into it.
