> i still adopt the idea that gender has its own inherent sociocultural activity separate from biological affect sexual dimorphism in humans is pretty low compared to other species. while women trend towards caregiving and men trend towards protecting, there is enough overlap in brain structure and function that the gender roles created around those tendencies can be fluid enough that males and females can cross into each others gendered territory, so to speak. our gender roles are a social construct, but they are also based on biological reality. there are very few cultures in the world where the gender rolls are reversed.
