Being more "butch" isn't less natural for a female--it's just less common.

From the article: "These atypical kids, incidentally, demonstrate the limits of socialization as the sole explanation for gendered behavior. Parents did not encourage them to deviate from gender norms, yet this subset of children became more gender-divergent as they grew up."
