     [ "gender" ]

    1: A societal construct that is, in actuality, about as useless and restrictive as race.

      * e.g.,  ... There may be unfathomable, uncrossable chasm that exist between certain types of people, but gender should not be considered one of them.

    1: your mode of self-reflection or ID dealing with how you see yourself (or don't see yourself) in terms of your sex.

      * e.g.,  ... there are two sexes, but countless genders. 

     [ "gender" ]

    1: Gender is not a social construct, gender is biological just like sex, however, they are not the same thing and should not be used interchangeably. Gender is between your ears, not your legs. Everyone has a gender and a sex, but they don't always match each other, this is why some people wish to alter their bodies or change the way they present themselves to society. Contrary to popular belief, there are more than just two genders. Some people don't identify as male or female, some people identify as both. Gender is not always black and white, there are gray areas too.

      * e.g.,  ... Person A: You were born with a vagina, so you're a girl! 


     [ "gender" ]

    2: Sex isn't always black and white either, there are men who have XXY chromosomes, and women with internal testes. There are species that can literally change sex in a heartbeat, such as clownfish.

      * e.g.,  ... Person B: No, I'm a boy, because my gender identity is male. 

     [ "gender" ]

    1: Gender is a social construct made up by capitalists to sell pink and blue crap. There is only one gender. And that's squishy human thing.

      * e.g.,  ... 'Mom said it was my turn on the gender.' 'F*** of Josh using the same stupid joke you got from Tumblr doesn't make you funny you stupid fu-' 

     [ "gender" ]

    1: How one defines themselves with clothes, pronouns, how they carry themselves, etc (i.e. male, female, androgynous, etc). Different from sex- ex: a person may be born female (sex) but identify as male (gender), though for many, sex and gender are synonymous.

      * e.g.,  ... "I prefer female pronouns such as 'she' and 'her', because female is my gender." Or "My gender is androgynous, though my sex is male." 

     [ "gender" ]

    1: A property of nouns and pronouns.

      * e.g.,  ... The word SHIP often has a feminine gender. People refer to a ship as SHE. 


     [ "gender" ]

    2: A noun can have one of three genders, masculine, feminine, and neuter. Gender is never male or female; that is sex.


     [ "gender" ]

    3: The gender of a noun may have little or no relation to the sex of its bearer. For example, in German, the word for dog is der Hund, which has masculine gender. A dog may be male or female, but the word for dog has masculine gender.


     [ "gender" ]

    4: Radical feminists, effeminate men, and extremely ignorant people use the word to mean sex. They also ignorantly believe that the pronoun HE, when used to refer to someone of unknown sex, is offensive. Instead, they ignorantly and incorrectly use the word THEY to refer to a single person of unknown sex. Notice that French, German, Spanish, and other people have no trouble at all distinguishing sex and gender. A German is never offended by the word ER used to refer to someone of unknown sex, even though ER also means HE. That's because Germans are intelligent enough to know the difference between gender and sex, and that gender may have little to do with sex.


     [ "gender" ]

    5: Even well-meaning organizations ask for you gender on applications now, but only out of ignorance. They surely want to know if you are male or female, not whether you enjoy eating butt or prancing on floats in parades.

     [ "gender" ]

    1: Gender refers to the socially constructed roles, behaviors, activities and attributes that a given society considers appropriate for its individuals. It is often considered a state of being, a mode of life.

      * e.g.,  ... : John believes in traditional gender roles. 


     [ "gender" ]

    2: When used to categorize individuals, it can be described as:

      * e.g.,  ... : English doesn't officially have a gender-neutral pronoun so many people try making up one and many simply use the singular they. 


     [ "gender" ]

    3: - social roles based on two distinct biological sexes (man and woman)

      * e.g.,  ... : State your name, age and gender, please. 


     [ "gender" ]

    4: - personal identification based on the reiteration and repetition of the norms through which one is constituted by society and self-awareness (includes feminine, masculine, transgender, non-binary and gender-nonconforming)
