    Writing would be extremely boring without ever using adjectives.

    Correct. Still an extraneous usage of one here. The noun by itself is perfectly descriptive enough for this particular story.

    I also find it amusing you find gender has relevance to the story.

    Strawman. I don’t find it relevant. Wouldn’t have minded if they’d said “person” or “woman” or “dude” or “gal”. The single aforementioned descriptive noun suffices.
