What part of this below don't You understand, or do You just make up Your own definitions? "Typically" doesn't mean exclusively. So yes, gender can be biological, revolve around physical attributes. Yet, "sex" is a synonym. Don't rage and get peeved with Me, I don't define this stuff: 1. the state of being male or female (typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones). "traditional concepts of gender" synonyms: sex Dictionaries evolve based on the way people use or misuse words. I hope that one you're quoting also has entries like "selfie" and "lol". Ask the scientific community how they'd use these words and that's what I'll stick with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.' 'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.' 'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master — that's all.' I guess it's always been that way but it sure seems the Humpty's are out to dominate the most useless conversations on social media and every second of their existence.

Just Jack Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 I went to one recently and before they reveal they passed out pink and blue stickers, with the idea you would pick which color you’d believe the kid would be and stick it on your shirt. I put both colors on and when people asked, tell them I think the kid will get a sex change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary M Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Back in the day they had gender reveal parties in the delivery room. FTA: "I feel absolutely horrible about it. It was probably one of the worst days of my life." PROBABLY??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have been a sex reveal party, and I still would not have realized what the term meant! I think people showing up to a sex reveal party would be expecting to make babies, not learn about a half-baked one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
