By the Numbers: The Underrepresentation of Women in Photography | PetaPixel

According to a new report, despite making up nearly half of the photography workforce, women are dramatically underpaid and underrepresented compared to their male counterparts.
In line with the upcoming International Women’s Day, a creative content marketing agency conducted research that looked at the disproportionate representation of women photographers in the industry — from the lack of brand ambassadorships to fewer features on major camera brand social media profiles.

For some reason, women also don't seem to use photography forums as much as men, at least not in the forums I've used down the years. So women are not just relatively invisible in public, they're also relatively invisible amongst other photographers. I wonder why that is.
