Fucking jesus christ it only took 50 years for it to happen.
And people wonder why women don't feel welcome in these disciplines.
It's not like they were using the uncropped centerfold. There's nothing wrong with the headshot. It's a woman in a hat.
But the image is from a photoshoot for playboy so its inherently dirty and offensive, even if they only use the cropped version. /s
Well, according to the Wikipedia article that's exactly the criticism (but without sarcasm).
This is the part I don't get. How has the picture not changed with the times due to camera advances.
Same reason the length of a meter hasn't changed despite measurement advances. It was used as a benchmark.
