Biological sex, gender identity and gender expression all vary independently with no causal relationship whatsoever. If there is a correlation, it exists because society has been constructed by people who want to dominate the social order. Everything is a power game, and certain people who have been given certain privileges have the opportunity to use nefarious means to attain that power. One way they do this is by arbitrarily creating a distinction between men and women. The axiom of society is that men and women are inherently different biologically and cannot be wired to operate differently. The idea is that men and women run on different software, and that this software is immalleable and unchanging. New research has shown that this simply isn't the case. Developmental psychology shows that behaviors and differences in personality are learned and develop over time, and are NOT inhereted. One is not simply born to drive a car or speak cogently and articulately. These are traits that everyone can learn to a certain degree. Differences in cognitive abilities and personality profiles between genders and races are simply the result of sociocultural and economic conditioning.

This is a very old question--nature vs. nurture. Get over yourself.
