Between a group of guys and a group of women talking, I generally prefer being the odd man out with the women, although I wouldn't say I have a "female brain," since I also can find farts funny.
Btw, that is my Gold Standard Tranny test, women just don't appreciate a hilarious fart. We can determine gender once and for all finally.
But regardless of any of that, it doesn't change the fact I am a guy. I don't get a choice there, although I'm super happy I'm a dude.

I don't see that test working correctly. You may be right, but it's undoubtedly because of how women are raised to be the fairer sex.

I don't think so, I think it's genetic. I think a lot more of our behavior is genetic than we previously allowed for. My niece was raised without her father, still acts like him regardless, wasn't raised with gender roles, still likes girl stuff.
I also think it's interesting that three of us with rather unusual genetics have congregated on this cozy site. Almost like there's a behavioral component to it that lands us here. Cc: u/Hongkongphooey

Genetics certainly do affect behavior. But most gender stereotypes are learned, and even what is an innate trend is strengthened by the resulting stereotype.
A child does not have to be raised by their parents to be affected by stereotypes. Society teaches them, and girls especially end up conforming to them because female social circles cast out anyone who's different (because they're told they're the fairer sex, and they want to keep that reputation). Moreover, "gender neutral" parents usually incorporate more stereotypes than they think. Even if they don't pressure their kids toward them, they usually still assume their kids are stereotypical and expose them more to those things, though not consciously. It's so deeply ingrained into us that it's very difficult to rid ourselves of it.

But most gender stereotypes are learned
That's modern thinking, and I have come to believe that is mostly wrong. Again with my niece, that girl has spent a considerable amount of time sparring with me. She should know how to fight, but it devolves into a girly slapfest when she's upset. There's core programming she's falling back on, contrary to what she was taught.

Fair point.

I mean...a lot of people devolve into a "girly slapfight" when they're upset. But the costs for men being seen like that are absolutely damning.

Isn't there really an entire lack of definition or rationale to claim that women are more fair?

It's the stereotype and a goal for social benefits. Children are raised in accordance with stereotypes, whether they respond to all of them or not.
