You're describing reproductive biology. I have a hard time categorizing this as anything but "sex". But turns out actual biology doesn't just a give clear separable binary male vs female distribution. Thus "bimodal" is a better word and allows for the many cases of "its complicated".

"Gender roles", in contrast, are by my understanding more what society expects men/women to behave like, including how to present themselves.
