Have you ever met a butcher? What about a construction worker? Ideas about gender roles are still quite traditional and stereotypical. The classic division of labor is still rooted in our minds. The environment expects women and men to behave in a specific way and perform specific tasks. One of the most persistent notions is certainly that women are better suited for housework and men are better leaders because women are too emotional to make serious business decisions. It is also true that girls do not play with toy cars and boys do not play with Barbies. Photographer Chris Crisman tackled this very 'problem' in his project Women's Work, and his portraits show women in non-traditional roles.
