fucking H A T E it. just got a surf photo book from my bf sent to me in the mail today. 160 pages and only one pic of a girl - doing the same thing as the other guys. the rest 3 pics of surfers which doesn't appear to have a penis, they stand against a wooden fence, standing in string pants, making a "flower formation" in the water - seriously. the worst bit was that the only girl photographer in the book was kinda that the girls have themselves to blame for getting paid 1/4 of what the guys get paid. love surfing, but 95% of the magazines/books/films whatever that comes with it is redicilous when it comes to picturing women/men. id be happy to hear about a film/mag that doesn't!!
Yes, it's still endemic......and makes me wild too.
