gender is complicated, or not?

I'm having some issues getting what I want to say down here, and nobody here really KNOWS me or anything, so even though I find it intellectually interesting, the rest of you feel free to ignore this. I was reading comments on chapter 7 of Rules are Rules, and I just got really confused about this idea of gender stereo typing being necessary for him to fit in and not get caught and it just kind of felt wrong to me. I think gender is much more complicated than all that surface garbage, and it's also pretty transparent. It's only a big deal if there's something wrong.
