scientist. I drew my scientist like this because most scientists are men

principal. I drew the principal like because our principal is a male.

In our group the others drew the Prime minister like Jacinda Arden but I just did random

What is a gender stereotype? A gender stereotype is someone that thinks certain genders that has to do or like certain things.

I don't think jobs have certain stereotypes.

I don't think different aged people will draw the same things because their influence is different.

If I drew this again it would probably be different.
