Nah, I'd gladly accept if I was. I'd love making transphobes uncomfortable. Alas, I am a mere occasional transVESTITE. My gender id guy. Maybe I'm genderqueer but not sure. I don't wanna label myself that just to be cool to the social justice crowd. I wanna stay authentic.

Too much emphasis is placed on gender and it supposedly being fluid.
You were born in male biological form, how you represent yourself won't ever change this. That is just your own mindgame and whatever you think, feel or do, you will still always be male.

Gender as an objective term, is either male or female form. Filling in forms, many still ask what your gender is.
Sex is the same thing, but gender replaced the term, because the term sex brought up other connotations as well. The subjective notion of gender is more to do with gender roles and how history represented them.
This is just archaic societal conditioning, so you are partly correct, but it is still subjective, so not the same for everyone.

Of course not, but you have just answered my point, the meaning changes to suit agendas.
If the general text book meaning of gender is to determine genus/kind, then it means something that can be easily recognized in the physical obvious. One is either gender female or male. The rest is all semantics.
