Do you remember Norman Seeff's famous black and white photos of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs posing with a new Macintosh at his home (Woodside)? In these photos from 1984, the computer visionary was wearing a Seiko wristwatch, which became a global bestseller in these photos taken for Time magazine.

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.

But what do we feel when we look at them?

Before they became the most powerful people on the planet, American presidents were just ordinary mortals. See photos of American presidents from their youth, which prove that they were once not so different from us.
