Considering that there was a quite scholarly post explaining that
"gender" is a gramatical term and "sex" is a biological term, and
that gender has little to do with sex, I am surprised that this 
thread continues.

Why?  I know it is fun to ignore facts and argue emotions, but it
is neither productive of anything other than 'feel good' self-
images and angst without suffering.
