    Yes, "sex" is simple since having a uterus makes you female while "gender" is a construct of societal norms and how a given person feels about his/her own sexuality.

    In some Asian farming families there is a practice that people raised in the West find strange. If a family has all male children, one of the males is raised as a female and she assumes the role. This practice is dying off because it clashes with Western norms.

    What's the meaning of the big, blue "D"?

      Thanks, I didn't know. I enjoy being an expat but sometimes don't know what's going on over there.

      Very good aaarrgh, you and the Nazi cucks are trying to use logic.

      Gender is both socially constructed and based on biological evidence. This is not so difficult to understand (for others).

      Some info:

      Scientific research shows gender is not just a social construct

      Evidence that gender has some basis in biology, though, in no way implies a strict gender binary, nor negates the existence of transgender and non-binary identities. Many biology-based gender differences originate from the hormonal environment within the womb, which is very different on average for boys compared to girls. But there’s a huge variation in these environments, says Alice Eagly, psychology professor at Northwestern University. “Within boys there will be a range and within girls there will be a range. To say it’s biological doesn’t mean it’s perfectly binary,” she says.
