"Gender perception" or "gender presentation" perhaps. But for the longest time "gender" meant one's biological sex.
We should, instead, talk about personality as affected by gender, and behavior as influenced by personality and culture, including assumed or adopted gender norms.
What the article says is that personality is affected by gender. Behavior is influenced by more than just personality. These are distinctions in cause and effect, which tend to be blurred together when using political language. Personality (ex ante) and behavior (ex post) distinctions keep getting wrapped around the axle of these attempted redefinitions.
