Some of these qualities are diametrically opposed however. And sometimes it just takes two people to tackle a problem.
Sure, but it doesn't matter which side you are on regardless of your sex.

Sure. I don't think it's controversial, if we are talking about reproduction.

Haven't read the book, but I guess she had a faulty perception of how masculine she actually was.

What are you even trying to say here? I am confused. You just said that you can have feminine traits as a man, that means you can be a feminine man.. so what cannot be swapped?

Read up on the American military and how group dynamics change when women and men are in mixed units. The same behaviour when done by a man and by a woman will have a different effect.
If you put a bunch of feminine men and a bunch of masculine men into the same unit the dynamic will also be different than if it was a group of all likeminded individuals. Once again, sex is irrelevant, it's the individual.

Individuals also have different biology. I know there are tendencies, but in society we ought to judge everyone on an individual basis. Also one thing you have to understand is that biology is often dumb and it is not in your best interest to blindly follow it, I'll give you an example:
I had an ear canal infection once, which messed up my vestibular system, during that time I had motion sickness and constantly wanted to vommit, because my lizard brain thought that it's because I ate something poisonous, but I knew better because I was diagnosed at the hospital, so fought the urge to vommit constantly to keep down the food and water to get well faster rather than give into the instinct and be sick while hungry and dehydrated.
