No important reason.  I had to make some arbitrary assumptions about your 
example, and I guessed wrong.  So, I was guessing you might have:

<genders>
        <bob>1</bob>
        <mary>0</mary>
</genders>

but I can see where it's more likely that you'd have:

<person name="bob" gender="1"/>

or 

<person>
        <name>Bob</name>
        <gender>1</gender>
</person>

I think my answer on the type works in any case.

Terrific.  I'm very glad to help.
