I think my male self would be a fair bit different. I am very, very firmly identified with living in my particular body, so if I happened to be a tall athletic brunette I'd likely be pretty different, too. I tend to come across as male in online-media. I've had friends tell me that they've been asked if I'm really a guy using a girl online name.
On the other hand, I'd still be me. I'd likely still be con-going, book-worming, teching, and quite probably dancing. No idea if I'd meet any of you people, though - that happened via a dating experience, and even if my male-self weren't straight (and no reason why he would be), the dated person is, so the introduction to all y'all simply would not have happened. For that matter - well, _I_ didn't meet anyone in college that I would have wanted to date for any length of time were I male, so I'd likely have left undergrad single. And since geeky girls are harder to find than geeky guys, who knows where I'd end up were I male.
Damn, this is depressing. So I'd still be me, but single and entirely else-friended.
