No one talks about the battle of the sexes any more. But there definitely are differences between women and men. Equal? In terms of salaries, at least, not yet completely.
(Pre-)judgements, (in-)abilities, whether through birth or upbringing – the drawings can show anything that imagination, experience, heart and mind and of course the pencil yields. About women, men or all that goes on between them.
