Gender

Gender is a socially constructed cultural category that is ascribed to differences in sex. Sex (such as female, male, or intersex) is usually defined by biological determinants, such as reproductive organs and sex chromosomes. Gender refers to the values, beliefs, and behaviors associated with these differences in sex, or the socially and culturally constructed ideas of masculinity and femininity.
