Gender
Gender is the social und cultural construction of sexual identity. In a culture of gender dichotomy, this is mostly male or female, even though other genders exist (hermaphrodites, transgender people etc.) Gender identity is an individual's self-conception as being male or female (or any other gender), but can also be used to refer to the gender that other people attribute to the individual, often based on bodily appearance, socialisation processes and cultural values.
