A person can be biologically a male and have a female gender identity.
A biological male or female can be different on their preferred gender identity.
It is not uncommon for someone with a male gender identity to have a male gender expression. There is nothing wrong when male acts with his own gender.
Biological sex and gender identity do not always align.
Choices on gender identity can be different from the biological sex. It depends on the person.
Biological sex is not related to culture, but gender identity and gender expression are.
Biological aspects are unrelated to culture. But it can influence gender preference of a person to a certain degree. Environment and its culture are social pressures that can push someone to change.
