Gender is a narrow set of expectations. It’s not “biological.” Skirts, lipstick, long hair, etc., these things are not derived from genetics or sex chromosomes. There’s no genetic component to driving a pickup truck, watching football, or wearing pants.

Is gender defined by biology and immutable? Then why enforce it? Is gender universal? Then why does it differ by cultures, places, and times? If gender is universal, biological, and immutable, what power do laws have over it? If laws do have power over it, then gender is whatever we make of it.

And it's not "society's norms" it's conservative patriarchal norms. There are many, many, many people who appreciate a very wide variety of personal styles and don't need to attach a gender to them. Hyper focus on a narrow appearance for a given gender helps the patriarchy imbalance.
