Or, when you want your drawing to be recognized by the audience as something it should look like that thing. Exaggerated actual traits communicate those ideas more quickly. Thinking a "certain gender" doesn't have to look a certain way implies gender is a real thing you can draw. We are sexually dimorphic, we not gender anything.
