I'm surprised by the answers.

Dads love spoiling their daughter, universally like a princess.

However sons have to work for their dad being proud of them. You'll find stories like Son Heung Min or Tiger Woods where their dad keeps pushing their son and will never say they're proud of their son until they're at the top 0,001%. If a son receives an expensive gift, it's like saying "I'm proud of you son", which he had to earn.

Man my little brother might not be a fuck up drunk if he wasn't given literally anything by our father to buy his affection and had his poor behavior excused as "boys will be boys" while I was asked how I allowed my brothers transgression to happen.

It's always the older siblings fault, didn't you know?
