#2This seems like non-news to me.
Really, what we are discussing here is lowering of inhibition. As we see equality better represented out there, women should feel less inhibited, in terms of role compliance to get opportunity, and with that, should be expressing themselves through work, as they would any other thing they are doing.

Yet, the preferential difference in expressing themselves implies that genders are not identical after all, an idea that doesn't get treated as a truism.

equal != identical.
It's just as easy to confuse the two concepts in the human society as it is in weakly typed programming languages.
If all genders were truly identical, there would be no point distinguishing between them in the first place.

I don't know anyone pushing the notion that genders are or should be identical.

Did you not get the memo? Gender is purely a social construct. It has no biological underpinning. One can identify as any gender they feel. And then they are that gender. Thus any "differences" you may think you perceive between genders are not real. They are purely cosmetic.

There's huge amounts of double-speak on such subjects. There's an awful lot of denial that there are any real differences at all, combined with insistence on the exact opposite, often from the same people, depending on the topic.

Did you not get the memo? All social constructs are biological. All behaviour has a biological underpinning, how could it be otherwise?
