And how do you separate "gender" from other forms of social behaviour?

"The World Health Organization defines gender as the result of socially constructed ideas about the behavior, actions, and roles a particular sex performs." All this shit is described on Wikipedia under "Gender".

There's plenty of information people can look up themselves, but it's usually pointless discussing it with certain groups of individuals because they just don't care.

That's not a good definition, then. It literally says gender arises from sex? How does that help your case.

I'm really confused about what you're taking issue with in that definition. Yes we're acknowledging gender is inextricably linked to sex and probably wouldn't exist without sex. Noone's disputing that (probably).

My point is that then you cannot divorce the idea of gender from sex. Which runs in direct contradiction with the idea that gender is a social construct.

What do you mean by divorce? You've been talking in very vague terms for a while now.

haha thanks I think I got that. I wanna know what exactly he means by that tho. Just because they're connected, doesn't mean one must determine the other.
