Mostly but when trying to design an egalitarian society at some point you do have to acknowledge that, while gender roles are by and large just social constructs, people with an XY chromosome do not ever get pregnant (at least in my experience). Doesn't mean everyone with an XX chromosome will, just that absolutely nobody with an XY chromosome will. I mean if you don't cross that bridge you just look kind of ridiculous, though not as ridiculous as a webcomic about gender roles.

E: I shouldn't have to say this, but this observation is not meant to be prescriptive or say that people with different biology should or would act in a specific way or adhere to a specific identity.

[some feminists say] gender roles are informed by natural and immutable differences between the sexes [and that's ok]
