Yes, all of those characteristics are associated with particular genders. Some of them overlap into many genders and most are driven by how you perceive your own sexual identity and your attraction (or lack thereof) to a sex partner. We've always had these forms of expression, it's just that the individuals were so shamed by our puritanical society that they hid out among us instead of just doing what they wanted. Our society evolved from a binary categorization (girls are soft, wear pink, and play with dolls etc. while boys are hard, wear blue, and play sports etc.) to one that actually considers that there are more than two ways for people to behave and that includes topics like who a person might want to date, screw, or marry. Sometimes those categories were beneficial, other times they were detrimental, but either way they evolved to become our societal norms. But many other societies on our planet treat those categories differently, and our isn't always best. Consider an American man telling a Scotsman that he's a wimp for wearing a kilt because "men don't wear skirts." Each is it's own social construct about what it means to be a man, but neither is the final authority on the topic, and we in America have this idea that anyone who isn't our preferred expression of gender is "weird" or "crazy" or "weak." XX and XY don't change but gender isn't about chromosomes, it's about society.
