If gender is a synonym for sex then the reverse is also true. However, those are the exceptions. Generally, inside & outside academia gender is used more than sex to refer to the sexes. If you genuinely never noticed then you need to step outside the feminist/TRA bubble.

Even feminism & transgenderism uses gender as a synonym for sex. The synonyms sex-roles & gender-roles illustrate this, so does gender dysphoria being alleviated with the administration of cross-sex hormones.

Everywhere you look gender is referring to sex, even grammatical gender (in English) does this. I don't see what the point in denying this is.

So, even when I reference scientific literature, you ignore it as a mere "exception" and insist that I live in a "feminist/TRA bubble". You're the one who needs to get outside of your own bubble and pick some damn biology textbooks. You can start with the high school ones and see with your own eyes that women being 46, XX and men being 46, XY and that some inheritable traits are linked to sex is not advanced biology that is only thaugh at university level.
