But you have chosen to define gender in that narrow way. There's no scientific evidence that obliges you to define it that way - it's a judgement call on your part. The ability to procreate is a bit problematic too. Plenty of people are born without the ability to procreate - what gender would they be? Biology deals in facts. Although psychology and elements of psychiatry are often considered "science" they can deal in far less readily measured parameters. Basing a definition of gender on biology is in fact a very scientific and practical way of doing things. gender /ˈdʒɛndə/ noun 1. either of the two sexes (male and female), especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones. The term is also used more broadly to denote a range of identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female. sex /sɛks/ ... 2. either of the two main categories (male and female) into which humans and most other living things are divided on the basis of their reproductive functions. "adults of both sexes"
