There are more people of middle and upper class economic status posting on HN, we just got used to it, etc. etc. The majority of fashion is targeted at women, therefore there are more female models, therefore there are more quality pictures of women out there than men, therefore it makes sense to use it as a test image gallery. Also, if the code is being used to display test images, this is probably closer to the normal subject matter it'll be used for. |

I actually complained once to my favourite label about their very limited choice of fashion for men. They replied that it's because men don't buy very much, which is funny since men don't even have the choice to begin with.

It's a bad reason to use the status quo to justify itself.
