Online platform Brightside recently put together a slew of illustrations that capture the varying situational responses between men and women and explore gender differences in a comical way. The images look at how men and women interact differently with activities such as getting ready to go out, having a haircut or enduring a breakup highlighting at the contrasting views both genders have.

The images play off of a slew of [gender stereotypes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pairwork) visualizing them in a fun [comic style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illustrations-ai) that parody many of the viewpoints that are now outdated in the modern age. While some differences between men and women are dated such as women spending more on their appearance than men, others do ring true such as the women's bathroom having a much longer line up than the men's.
