Doe Season or Deer Season?

If Andy was a boy she wouldn't mind doing either of the activities her parents want her to do because when she was asked to go into the sea she just felt like she was obligated because her mom was asking and she was a girl in the story. But if she was a boy and her mom asked her she wouldn't care if it was her mom or her dad that asked her, she would just do it if she wanted to. She would probably love to go hunting because even in the story when she was a girl she wanted to go hunting. But maybe instead of just viewing the landscape and the environment around her while hunting she would be more focused on killing the animal if she was a boy. She probably wouldn't hesitate as much as she did while being pressured to shoot the doe even if her dad was right there telling her what the do. Maybe if she was a boy, her dad wouldn't be pressuring her so much because he just aspects her to know what to do even at that young age. The parents would still want her to do both activities in the story and hunting would still be the main one based on facts about males and females.
