9/13 Assignment Boys & Girls

The story of Boys & Girls by Alic Munro is about a young girl living on a fox farm finding herself. As cliche as that may sound, our narrator's story is about finding herself relative to her gender. Living on a farm, lots of manual labor needs to be done, these types of labor aren't exactly considered "lady like."  This story can relate to a lot of girls and boys finding out who they are because of their gender. The message from story is to be yourself and based on the way you act, the rest of the pieces will fit into place. If you're a skinning foxes or a hair salon, it doesn't matter.
