It’s in Srila Prabhupada’s books – that a daughter’s characteristics are like her father’s, and a son’s like his mother’s. Here’s the passage: “Generally the daughter receives the qualifications of her father, and the son acquires those of the mother. So, according to the axiomatic truth that things equal to the same thing are equal to one another, the child born of King Anga became the follower of his maternal grandfather.” (SB 4.13.10/purport)
