Gender = sex, so sex exists. Gender is only a synonim of sex. Race is 100% real too. Sorry to break it up to you, but there are physical differences between the races, that go beyond the skin colour (for example, skulls have a different shape, so you can tell the race of a corpse just by its skeleton).

Races exist but the differences between them are absolutely not as strong or relevant as those between male and female. Races can be mixed but sex/gender is binary.

Gender USED to mean sex, but it is absolutely useless to continue using. The only other usage for it is grammatical gender. Plus, gender roles (alongside GNC).

Race is 100% real too

Sorry to break it to you, but it isn't. Science has proven otherwise. Using outdated, racist AF concepts isn't going to make it real either. Race is defined more than simply "physical differences". Its definitions have always changed, and if the concept continues to exist in the further, it'll change again.

Phenotypes are a adaption to the environment. A person will be more similar to another of a different "race," than of someone of their own "race." Diseases associated (sickle cell) with specific groups, can actually be found in different groups. Not one.

Humans are humans, not dogs.

Do you know you can even tell a person's race by their bones? Just saying, buddy. Race is very very real. Now the real question is why you don't like to hear that.

Race isn't real, love. Not matter how much you want it to be.

Then why can we tell a person's race from their skull? Race is real. Now the real question is why you hate this fact. I suppose you're racist, you hate thinking that people can be different from you, you're afraid of differences, so you tell yourself people aren't different.
