"If you look at someone with just their joints illuminated when they
aren't moving, it's difficult to tell what it is you are looking at.
But as soon as they move, instantaneously, you can tell that it's a
person and perceive their nature," van der Zwan said. "You can tell if
it's a boy or a girl, young or old, angry or happy. You can discern
all these qualities about their state, affect, and actions with no
cues at all about what they look like — with no form at all, just
motion."

It's true. There is a stereotypical way in carrying one's self. I pass much more if I consciously carry my arms in a more masculine angle.

According to this, my walk is quite gender neutral:

The gender differences in walking are most likely based on their gravity centers first. I've noticed that hippy men tend to move like women and vice versa.

Lol, I gotta see that.

Yeah their hips sway and even arm motions become a bit altered so as not to hit their hips. Knew a couple guys like that.
