No, he'd be a male not fully following the gender role.

I am not understanding your posts on this if I am honest.
Yes testosterone and male sexed bodied tends to make men stronger, and thus more suited to physical work (as a class. Some women are stronger than some men obviously)
What does this have to do with trans? You just admitted that a man taking on a stereotypically female gender role is still a man, just being unstereotypical. So...how does this tally with transgender people claiming taking on stereotypical female roles ARE actually female?
Basically, while some sex stereotypes may have a little basis in biology (many don't...and the ones usually mentioned when trans people talk are clothing and hairdo and toys they played with...which have NO basis in biolgy and are entirely socially constructed), they are still just stereotypes and are definitely not true of everyone of whichever sex. And not being stereotypical of your sex, does not make you the opposite sex.
