its different from sex

The question is, to what degree?

To the degree of the female brain and the male brain

Nonsense ,it's defined by biology

**sex** is defined by biology, **gender** is not

Nonsense. Since when are they different

That's... that's what gender is

Gender is a biology term too, it can't just be redefined as weird ppl see fit

That's the point of it

It's not biological

Gender and sexuality are synonymous

sexuality ≠ gender ≠ sex

No that's wrong

Care to elaborate?

<:popcorn:518788890216235010> I would like to see your argument @Shabam

Also hello Madeline nice to have you on board

hiya

Dictionary

An easy way to put it is
Gender = Brain
Sex = Genitals

Sexuality = What you're attracted to

gender is social and mental, with a difference between gender identity and gender expression (and presentation)

sex is biological and based on a lot of factors, including genitalia, hormones, etc (also not a binary)

sexuality is what genders (or lack thereof) you are attracted to, and is mental

I like my simplification better tho

Doesn't take as long to type

lol

O gohun

btw, according to dictionary.com the definition is:
```
either the male or female division of a species, especially as differentiated by social and cultural roles and behavior: the feminine gender. Compare sex(def 1).
a similar category of human beings that is outside the male/female binary classification and is based on the individual's personal awareness or identity.
```

@Shabam

We'll dictionary.com isn't the standard. U mean a real dictionary.

That's obviously been updated by the fetish groups

do you have any other argument other than a semantic one?

lmaoo

lol wat

Lmao

Try Oxford english maybe

If that is the def you want to use, then it doesn't mean anything. Sex then is the only scientific usable word at that point

You're free to dilute the meaning of words but there's no reason for anyone else to follow

well, language is defined by the users, and gender is most commonly defined nowadays in the way I quoted

and its easy to dismiss an argument if you get hung up on how people choose to define a word

here, I have a question

what do you think being transgender means?

If you dont even know what being transgender is then you cant even have this discussiontbh @Shabam
