While it's becoming increasingly difficult because of globalism, it's typically done by comparing different cultures. An example is the Hofstede cultural dimensions studies that separate cultures by individualism & collectivism, uncertainty avoidance levels, power distance, and masculinity & femininity (task orientation versus person-orientation), which led to the conclusion that men and women only really have physiological differences. That said, I don't know how much research has been done to identify gender differences in the way that we respond to those societal pressures. It would be interesting if the traditional American understanding of gender roles was consistent across all masculine individualist cultures.
