Gender is NOT about what is physcally between your legs, but is what you feel of which category you belong in the gender spectrum. For example, agender, gender fluid, cisgender, bigender, etc.

Gender is a social construct made up by capitalists to sell pink and blue crap. There is only one gender. And that's squishy human thing.
'Mom said it was my turn on the gender.'

when someone makes a generalization about a person's gender subjectivity. This can happen in many ways, particularly when it is assumed that a person must act within the prescribed gender roles that are socially constructed.
also used as a verb: "to genderalize someone"

Person 1:girls are so much hotter than boys.
Person2: That's such a genderalization! but also true.

Person 2: don't make genderalizations about babies and colors. maybe my baby likes pink, so what?

How one defines themselves with clothes, pronouns, how they carry themselves, etc (i.e. male, female, androgynous, etc). Different from sex- ex: a person may be born female (sex) but identify as male (gender), though for many, sex and gender are synonymous.
"I prefer female pronouns such as 'she' and 'her', because female is my gender." Or "My gender is androgynous, though my sex is male."

A property of nouns and pronouns.
A noun can have one of three genders, masculine, feminine, and neuter. Gender is never male or female; that is sex.
The gender of a noun may have little or no relation to the sex of its bearer. For example, in German, the word for dog is der Hund, which has masculine gender. A dog may be male or female, but the word for dog has masculine gender.
Radical feminists, effeminate men, and extremely ignorant people use the word to mean sex. They also ignorantly believe that the pronoun HE, when used to refer to someone of unknown sex, is offensive. Instead, they ignorantly and incorrectly use the word THEY to refer to a single person of unknown sex. Notice that French, German, Spanish, and other people have no trouble at all distinguishing sex and gender. A German is never offended by the word ER used to refer to someone of unknown sex, even though ER also means HE. That's because Germans are intelligent enough to know the difference between gender and sex, and that gender may have little to do with sex.
Even well-meaning organizations ask for you gender on applications now, but only out of ignorance. They surely want to know if you are male or female, not whether you enjoy eating butt or prancing on floats in parades.

The way that you choose to identify yourself, usually as a male or female.
For some reason, people keep confusing it with sex, which is determined by your genitalia at birth.
There are some people who feel like they do not feel as if they fit under the two binary genders, known as male and female. These people are called non-binary.
People who’s gender and sex are the same are known as cisgender. People who don’t are known as transgender or non-binary.

1. My gender is the same as my sex. I am cisgender.
2. My gender differs from my sex. I am transgender.
