But the same is not true of the portrayal of men. Images of women on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine were 89 per cent more likely to be sexualised and even 'pornified' in the 2000s than in the 1960s, the study by the University of Buffalo revealed. After analysing more than 1,000 images of men and women on Rolling Stone covers over the course of 43 years, the authors concluded that though images of both men and women have become more sexual, sexualised images are more frequent with women.
