I largely agree with you that these traits can be learned (let's exclude the fact that hormones affect mood and thus personality). However, growing up in a system that pushes this binary also affects personality. Thus, while I don't think your sex plays too big of a role into this, your gender (see: social constructs) totally does. You grew up in that environment with those expectations, and that forms you in some way.

Totally agree with that, despite my above comment.

But I don't want them imposing it on others, and I especially don't want them acting like their way is the only possible way to arrange the universe.
