Can we do away with sexist images of women?

I am the art director of a magazine for professional business women. I use firefly all the time to illustrate our stories and features. I use the words "professional business woman" "executive woman" "business woman" in my prompts. All too often I get back images of young women with short, tight skirts, high heels , narrow waists, shapely legs. In other words, the sexist, male image of the ideal woman. In the real world, women in corporate america do not dress like, well, video game characters nor are they 25 years old. I'd invite AI generating tools to work towards portraying women in a more realistic, more respectful fashion.

Hello @ckrizik,

Thank you for your message. I am sorry you are having this problem. The Adobe folks will take this feedback back to the product folks to see how they can effectively address it.

 

For now, my experience is that you need to be as specific as possible. The more generic you are in a prompt, using probabilities, it will look closest to what the average person with those keywords looks like in Adobe Stock. If I type your "professional business woman" into Adobe Stock, I get these images (and many more below it which are similar):

 

I am not sure how close these are to what you are seeing in Firefly, but when I use your prompt in Firefly, they look similar to these:

 

If you have a specific look in mind, you get the best results by being more specific, listing age, hair style, clothing, etc.

My best,
    droopy
