These are of course generalities, and are observing qualities of masculinity and femininity when it was more common for people to aspire to their correct gender role. There have always been more masculine women that buck the trend, but the exceptions don't disprove the rule or alter the bell curve. Unfortunately men now seem to take on the worse qualities of femininity, and women take on the worse qualities of masculinity. They put on stereotypical blackface of the other sex (trannies being the extreme example) but are incapable of reproducing the positive qualities of that sex.
