I hadn't given any thought to the statistics behind whether it's men or women that exploit the advantage over silly men of "sex sells", but I'd have to guess that you're right and that there aren't enough women "behind the camera" as it were in these situations. Women are being 'used' to drive interest in shows or websites, but other than being hired as "on-air talent", they're probably not too involved in the process. I wonder how tough it would be for a group of women to get together and create a production company or whatever to 'exploit' their own (meaning women in general, not THE women of the production company. :D) aesthetic advantages. A possible reason why not is that ambitious women wouldn't be inclined to 'stoop so low' to add to the stereotype of utilizing sex or sexuality to make a profit. Who knows? Interesting question. :D -- Bill C. http://TheLab.ReelSolid.TV
