Answer 1

I think the illustration downplays femininity because of simply what she looks like and what job she is doing. of course, i believe women can do whatever men can do, sometimes better. but i also believe men should do certain things while women do certain things as well. rosie should maybe look prettier and less manly, quite frankly. she has a manly physique in the illustration and she doesn't look happy. she looks annoyed with the fact that she has to do the job she is being forced to do. all in all, i just support femininity but i wish that women would be women sometimes. and men would be men.

2. i think the emotion on her face conveys maybe sadness of annoyance. she also looks quite mad to have to be doing a mans job.

yeah idk what i tried to say, i hope it made sense

Answer 2
