Where Is Sex?
No, this isnt about how I'm not getting any...
Where does one's gender reside? Is it mental? Is it about what you're packing in your denims, or whats in your genes? If someone has XY but is testosterone-resistant, and therefore physically female, which are they? What if they identify as male, what then? If they identify female? What if they just don't care or dont know, and just go with what theyve got to work with? What about transgender people? Pre-op? Post-op? What about really, really butch lesbians, or really really effeminate gays? What about closet transgenders?
What do these people mark on forms? What scholarships should they get? What bathrooms do they use?
Why do we even diffrentiate so much based on gender, when it's got just as much gray area as any other distinction?

Sex is the physical characteristics of your genitals.
Gender is all socio-psychological. Not every society only has two genders, not every society necessarily associates one gender with one sex. However, all societies do have a concept of gender.

Wow! You ask some tough questions here. I guess we could solve the whole bathroom problem by having gender neutral bathrooms, showers, etc. Then we could pass a law requiring all scholarships be gender neutral and no application for anything could ask a person what gender they are. :eek:

Well, I would go from me having sex to me not having sex...
Anyway, I always thought I would make a good cross-dresser, I've been mistaken for a girl before. And the sword might help with my voice...:eek:

Sex is...erm...possession of certain body parts. Gender is in the brain, how people think and how they identify themselves. And when the two dont match its really rubbish. Not much more to say really:p .

Yes, it would. Eunuchs are not considered male or female.
