Since I bought my DSLR recently I've picked up a few photography magazines out of interest, and I'm interested to see that the majority of people producing them and all the editors are male. The one I'm looking at now, for instance, has 14 people on the team and two of them are women. There is a list of their 'experts in the field', nine of them, all men. The book I bought about my camera was written by Julie Adair King but there are more books on photography written by men.
What do you think it is about photography that seems to attract more men than women? I would have thought it's the sort of creative field that would attract roughly equal numbers but it would seem not.
