This didn't just happen because we collectively decided on it as a culture. It's not something we consciously choose to do

The physical influence of gender is greatly exaggerated. People are consciously and subconsciously taught the appropriate way to behave as male and female when they're young. I can accept that men and women have a tendency to behave certain ways, but I would like humanity to fully appreciate that some things aren't gender-specific and that people should express themselves as honestly and individually as they can.
