Yes its been shown in monkey studies, so its actually deeper than human nature.

Male monkeys like computers and female monkeys like princesses? That's literally literally the most absurd statement I've ever processed.

The research was actually male monkeys like toy trucks, females like dolls. Check out the cute monkey pics:

I'm not really sure how a study about monkeys has any relevance to whether humans have engrained gender roles. People are cognitively far more complex and nature vs. nurture when it comes to gender is not really as decided as it might seem.
