Why did you put the males on the right? I’ve only seen males on the left, this throws me off big time. I’ve taught population pyramids for the past 14 years in high school and have always had males on the left.

Aesthetic reasons. I didn’t want the empty space on the left and wanted the labels for male % on the right side. I know it’s the opposite of others I’ve seen, but I wasn’t aware of a standardized format. (I didn’t want to make females pink, either.)

I don’t know if it’s a standard, it’s just what I’ve always been taught and have seen. Great job on them though.
