I think this is a simplistic take, reminds me a bit of a passage in the wonderful quote by Henry Beston in The Outermost House:

"…man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion."

The body can make the face appear more masculine or feminine; as can clothes, haircut, tattoos etc.
