OPTICAL illusions are strange – what one person can see others struggle to notice.
And now one such drawing has claimed it’s all to do with whether you’re a man or a woman – so what do you see here?

The image, shared on the social media giant, TikTok, has gone viral and depicts an opening in a cave.
According to Painhub.123021, who shared the optical illusion, the lines in the cave make out two things – a dog and a family of a mother and a father lovingly looking at their newborn.
The now-viral video then went to claim that guys will see the pet, whilst women will immediately notice the parents and the baby first.
But social media users were less than impressed – and some claimed this only reinforces gender stereotypes.
”Ppl [people] be making gender stereotypes literally out of NOTHING,” one social media user hit back.
A woman claimed: ”female here. I saw a dog first.”
A third chuckled: ”Depends on the brightness of your phone.”
Recently another optical illusion took the internet by storm – and people reckon it reveals what kind of a person you based on what you spot first.
This picture, as written about by National World, shows an old man and a young woman at the same time.
Whichever of the two you see at the first glance might have something to do with your dominant personality traits.
The old man with moustache
If you’re amongst those who first spotted an image of an old man’s face with a moustache, you are most likely a calm, honest and faithful person.
You are also described to be as trustworthy and reliable by others.
A natural leader who can take initiative, with others often looking to you when they need guidance or wisdom.
You are also something of a perfectionist – this can be a source of stress, but you carefully follow steps to reach your goals.
Being a perfectionist prevents you from making impulsive decisions that might ruin your plans and goals.
The young woman
When presented with this image, some people first see a young woman’s head.
If that’s you then you are an optimistic and a curious person, full of positive energy.
As a person, you are impetuous and tend to act based on impulsive decisions, but you are also passionate about trying new things whenever possible.
As you usually look for the best in every situation and enjoy helping others, those around you will often look to you for positivity.
Those who see the young woman first are also believed to be strong and resilient.
But rather than keeping things to themselves, they would benefit from sharing problems with others and seeking support when needed.
