Except your gender is literally ingrained in your bones.

Except it is not. Gender is not sex. It's a simple understanding that unfortunately has to be repeated because people don't want to accept that gender and sex are different things.

literally clueless what literally means.

noun
noun: gender; plural noun: genders

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.


so people hijacked a word we used to describe sex to instead describe something meaningless

nowhere does it say "people hijacked a word 'we' used to describe sex" also funny you should mention 'sex' which is actually the exact word you're looking for.

I got no problem with the gays, just don't tell me your a female or use your specific pronouns, I won't cater to your delusion.

You can't just cherry pick definitions to match your world view. And in case your own source wasn't enough - From Merriam Webster

The words sex and gender have a long and intertwined history. In the 15th century gender expanded from its use as a term for a grammatical subclass to join sex in referring to either of the two primary biological forms of a species, a meaning sex has had since the 14th century; phrases like "the male sex" and "the female gender" are both grounded in uses established for more than five centuries. In the 20th century sex and gender each acquired new uses. Sex developed its "sexual intercourse" meaning in the early part of the century (now its more common meaning), and a few decades later gender gained a meaning referring to the behavioral, cultural, or psychological traits typically associated with one sex, as in "gender roles." Later in the century, gender also came to have application in two closely related compound terms: gender identity refers to a person's internal sense of being male, female, some combination of male and female, or neither male nor female; gender expression refers to the physical and behavioral manifestations of one's gender identity. By the end of the century gender by itself was being used as a synonym of gender identity.

TLDR

it was the very first definition that showed when I googled it


also... YOU are the person trying to change how everyone has used a word for 100+ years lol

you want to obfuscate gender/sex to suit your narrative LOL

People / Society are changing how people use words. This has been going on since language. It's what happens as we grow in our understanding of people and the world.

If it is too long for you to read, then I have no interest in continuing. You can go ahead and continue getting the last word or w/e you need to satisfy you.
