As someone who used to work in an imaging research group, we quit using Lena years ago specifically because the women researchers in our group brought it up. We came to the decision to retire it and move on. It's a small change, but it's important to promote an environment where everyone feels comfortable and is able to do their best work. I can't quite understand why people waste their time debating a technically inferior test image.
- IshKebab 3y agoFair enough. I don't think anyone is really arguing to keep it any more than they're arguing `master` is a better name than `main`. Just debating the reason for getting rid of it. If it really offends women then I think it's fine to retire it for that reason (in addition to the technical reasons).
