I do reject it explicitly. It's garbage. I hope that clarifies.
Gender is a word, like all words it defines what most people understand it to mean. in this context I am not sure exactly what you're saying, how does one reject common usage of a word? FWIW I remember people rejecting the word gay, when it's etymology changed ot refer to homosexuality, it seems odd to me, like refusing to accept the tide is coming in.
gender
noun
1. the male sex or the female sex, especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones, or one of a range of other identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female.
