Scientifically, I'd say it's mostly about male/female but that there are exceptions. Socially, I'd say that we are all taught to play act when young and some roles are preferable to us as we age, regardless of science. All the world's a stage. May everyone feel like they fit. Peace.

Scientifically it’s multiple continuums with trends across a broad population correlated with foetal and pubescent hormone exposure that is poorly applicable to individuals. But sure let’s reduce that complexity all down to „male/female“ scientifically.
