    Yep. The NPCs involved act this way and provided these Male and Female unique dialogues because it is their culture. It embrace the actual lore of these NPCs and do no shy away from what it has been established what their culture is like which for these bunch of NPCs is a Male dominant culture as the lore stated for these NPCs.

    It is actually quite reminiscent of what life was like for cultures that currently or once live as Tribes such as Native Americans. The male were chosen to grow up to be warriors for fighting other tirbes and hunting large game and the females were grown to perform gathering and cooking. It split the task required for their culture and was a normal thing for them as keeping the female safe away from the fighting was important since the females are the ones who give birth to children. Of course this is also why it leads to their different beliefs between males and females but also showed that female life was more valued than a male since if all females died in a tribe then the Tribe is garantee to be wiped out even if some males survived if not from being killed then simply over time.
