I think that it's more that her little brother hated them.

For such a supposedly dedicated ero fan, Peroroncino seems to be mostly straight. On the other hand, I suppose that means his pervertedness springs from the heart rather than being externally influenced?

Bukubukuchagama, on the other hand, probably didn't intend Mare as a proper "trap" character. His being dressed as a girl is supposed to be a representation of lack of (rebuke to) male sexuality, not an attempt at seductive attractiveness. In other words, the point is that little brother characters (and males generally) shouldn't be walking avatars of lust.

That's why there is no ambiguity about the gender identity of the character, Mare identifies as male and speaks with male (albeit less assertive male) pronouns. More of a "stop being turned on by everything in a skirt, pervs!" kinda character.
