It's all to do with instinct - it has nothing to do, initially at least, with the social constructs of how men and women are perceived to behave on a day to day basis. It's the different hormones and feelings that men and women separately feel that their brain ultimately rejects. After that is when it turns into a rebellion from dresses/makeup/long hair/ sport/ facial hair etc, because the constructs of stereotypical feminity and masculinity are all around us it adds to the internal pressure; hence a strong urge to disassociate from it all from a very young age.
