The relationship between sex and gender can be discussed in many different lights. All complicated lights. Each individual sees a sexual identity and a gender identity, with the subject of perceiving these identities the way they wish to perceive them. However, the impact of gender on our identities and bodies and how they manifest is often taken for granted in various ways. Gender issues continue to be an extremely important topic in contemporary modern society. I intend to help the reader understand that femininity and masculinity are a socially constructed concept and whether the binary categories of “male” and “female” are adequate concepts for understanding and organizing contemporary social life by discussing the experiences of individuals and groups who have resisted these labels and forged new identities. The main issue to think about when looking at the relationship between sex and gender is whether it is purely biological or is more than definitively socially constructed. The distinction between sex and gender could be described simply as sex: the biological composition of an individual's reproductive anatomy, and gender: an individual's lifestyle or personal identification of their gender. First by examining the argument that gender identity arises from biological processes. For some, it may be an obvious answer to the fact that women and men are chromosomally different. Women who have two X chromosomes and men who have one X and Y chromosome. The Y chromosome produces testosterone and other androgens. These androgens allow the male to develop the testes and penis rather than the female genitalia of the ovaries and uterus. It is argued that they all cause different development of the male and female brain. For example… half of the paper… look at both of them entirely. It would be an obvious assumption to assume that sex and gender have a very close relationship looking only at the biological side. However, after conducting independent research, it is obvious that this is not the case. Gender is a socially constructed concept. From the moment you are born and whether or not you are dressed in pink or blue, it is the beginning of the social construction of your gender. However, even though some of these constructions can be seen to be a problem, I believe that people can tend to fall into some of these theories without realizing it. Overall, after looking at the theories of both men and women, I believe that their sex and gender are not related. I also believe that society is now more supportive of sex and gender, especially after the recent statement in Australia.
