Sex and Gender!!!!


Sex and gender is all around, meaning I always hear about it, and I been learning about it ever since I was little. Nowadays you can never know if someone is a male or female, because people changes there looks so much.

Many people seem to not understand the difference between Gender and Sex. Sex really means female with female organs and male with male organs, whereas gender is socially constructed by our cultural expectations, our interaction with others. The reading "Understanding Sexual Orientation" by Alfred C. Kinsey is a cross culture study about homosexual and heterosexual. He talks about how everyone was either heterosexual or homosexual from the time of birth. he studies homosexual people by their emotions, aspiration, appearance, activities and behaviors. There are three types of gender identity: some identify themselves as heterosexual while some identify as homosexual. From reading this article, I think hes trying to say is, everything is not always divided, someone can be two or three things at the same time. And I seen proof of all that, where someone can be lost lesbian and gay or other things. You might not be gay when you were born, but everything changes when you’re living through life. I knew a lot of girls who use to like boys and vise Vera, but after awhile I guess they got tired or they just got attracted to the same sex so they became something else, its but to be that, I mean I know before in the society accepting something like that wouldn’t it ever happen, but now you can do whatever you want, it’s the 21st century. I know for  a fact, more years later, theres gonna be maybe something more interesting than just dating your own sex, and I honestly wont be surprise with anything that happens.
