Spoiling it for Everyone
Yesterday at work I told one of the art directors/photographers about my job making Shawn look nice and non-threatening to parents.
She said "Yes, that's the one advantage women photographers have. They can take pictures of people without anyone wondering about their motives. It can be hard for male photographers. When men try to shoot candids of children or women, everyone assumes they're a pervert...
...But what are you going to do? They brought it on themselves."

My wife had a similar experience. She's a photographer, and she does some figural stuff. She gets a lot of male photographers (some creepy, some not) who want to "collaborate" with her. That means that they are unable to find women willing to model for them (ofetn for good reason) and want to use her gender and prescence in the studio to get female models. She declines to work with these guys.
