Gender is a construct, sex is a fact of biology. Females share a sex regardless of any disparate gender constructs between their cultures, ditto for males....but gender constructs don't always share a sex.
Quote:The sex and gender distinction is not universal. In ordinary speech, sex and gender are often used interchangeably.[3][4] Some dictionaries and academic disciplines give them different definitions while others do not.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_and_ge...istinction
