A contradiction in the liberal view of gender

A transwoman may love baking and sewing or she may love playing sports and being the sole breadwinner. Those are socially imposed gender roles that are arbitrary. Identifying as a certain gender has nothing to do with identifying with arbitrary gender roles.

What is there to gender other than these socially defined roles and stereotypical characteristics?
