And is it not equally beneficial for a woman to be a strong protector or a man to be a comforter/caretaker?

Note that I'm not suggesting the inherent biological/psychological differences don't cause men to tend toward the former and women the latter, if we're looking on a broad, statistical scale. I'm asking if there's anything about those traits that requires you to identify them as being the "ideal man/woman" instead of just saying they're good traits and leaving gender out of the evaluation process entirely.

It is beneficial but that doesn't necessarily make it masculine/feminine but I'm not saying it's a bad thing for a man to have some femininity in him or a woman to have some masculinity in her.
