Seems like gender has about a million meanings these days. If I understood correctly, in English it used to be the "polite" term for sex, and thus meaning the exact same thing. But now I've seen it used as gender identity, gender roles... TRAs say sex and gender are different things, but then use them interchangeably all the time.

So basically, it's normal to be confused by all this, because it's just a mess.
