In “The Open Boat”, it is instantly recognizable that the men aboard the dinghy have no control over every aspect their situation. The crew steer the boat and row the oars, however as the men squeeze inside this tiny boat, they fall victim to naturalism.

Emma Watson once said that “It is time that we all see gender as a spectrum instead of two sets of opposing ideals” (quotesberry.com).
