South Africa, Gauteng, Female, 24 and under

Being an industrial designer and coming from an industry that is mostly male-dominated and has a stigma towards females has affected me when I just started out. But after a few years, I have grown a thick skin and this has driven me to perform and prove to them (the males) that I am just as capable as what they are.
