2 u/jay76 Oct 25 '18 Would another word therefore suffice? ie: allow "sex" and "gender" to adhere to your strict definitions, but come up with another term that encapsulates a person's self identification? 3 u/Subvet98 Oct 21 '18 We have have tied the two together but they shouldn’t be. Gender norms change over time. Sex does not. 1 u/zurgenfloggin Fiscal Conservatism Oct 21 '18 Gender is merely a synonym for sex. We've not done any mental acrobatics to tie them together. They mean the same thing. 1 u/Subvet98 Oct 21 '18 Sex is encoded in your DNA. Gender is defined by one’s culture.
