As per the given description, Ashley would probably be categorized under a 'feminine culture' as she is allowed to live on her own terms and her roles in the society is not different or distinct from the men. She possess the authority to work independently, wear clothes as per her will, and chose her own way to live life. A masculine culture would never promote such a behavior as they are quite clear and assertive in defining the gender roles distinctively.
