Are gender and sex the same thing?

Male/female.
Boy/girl.
Man/woman.

Trans gender women want to be women.
They want to change their gender.
Transition their gender from male to female.
They try to have sex changes.

I'm not understanding your meaning.

Are gender and sex the same thing?

I have a very low opinion of you.

I'm sure you don't understand.

Are gender and sex the same thing?

The reason i ask is because your comments above appear to be a fallacious argument by mixing the terms.

In the usual usage sex refers to the biological aspect while gender refers to the social construct.

That's why you get transgender people but not gender change surgery.

You spend all of this time pushing the lefty shill agenda.

I bet you haven't convince a single person of anything.

Anyone with a working braincell can see throughout the queer theory bullshit.

I spend time pushing a pro-evidence ... dare I say, pro-science agenda.

Reality isn't left or right. But the very extremes of both sides can reach the point where reality conflicts with those positions.

You're very focused on avoiding the question "Are gender and sex the same thing?"

Is that question in particular threatening to your identity?

pro-science agenda.

Science doesn't have an agenda.

Find a trans animal in nature.

Queer theory activists have hijacked $cience for an agenda.

Science doesn't have an agenda.

People, particularly political extremists advocate an anti-science position. Then pro-science becomes an agenda.

Find a trans animal in nature.

Queer theory activists have hijacked $cience for an agenda.

And here we see the anti-science agenda of extremists.

Spotted hyenas don't change their genitals. They aren't trans.

Myth: They’re hermaphrodites.

Truth: This myth may come from the fact that spotted hyena females are generally bigger than males and have a pseudo-penis. .
These pseudo-penises, or pseudophalluses, are paired with "testicles"—actually fused labia filled with fatty tissue. Both sexes get erections when they're excitedly greeting each other, Benson-Amram says.
