        personList.add(new Person("Eric","eric@gmail.com", Gender.MALE, 26));

        /*
         * The filter() operation returns a new stream that consists elements
         * matching a given condition which is typically a boolean test in form
         * of a Lambda expression.

        personList.stream().filter(p -> p.getGender().equals(Gender.FEMALE))
                                                .forEach(System.out::println);

        /*
         * The following code shows only male who are under 25:
         */
        personList.stream().filter(p -> p.getGender().equals(Gender.MALE) && p.getAge() <= 25)
                .forEach(System.out::println);

    }

}

Output

--------Filterd based on FEMALE--------
Person [name=Alice, gender=FEMALE, age=16]
Person [name=Carol, gender=FEMALE, age=23]

--------Filterd based on Male and Age<=25--------
Person [name=Bob, gender=MALE, age=15]
Person [name=David, gender=MALE, age=19]
