Yes. This is just gender stereotypes. Let's abolish gender stereotypes instead. You do you, fam.

Yup. When I was a teen I had a lot of dark coloured clothing, I wasn't a goth but my family thought I preferred dark clothes. I actually prefer bright colours, whether it's pink, yellow or baby blues. The older I get the less of a shit I give with expectations of gender stereotypes. I'm 27 and had my hair dyed bright blue a couple years ago and I got comments from middle aged men telling me that there was something wrong with that. I still get comments from the guy who lives across the road too.
