Gender or sex? There is a difference, I've heard.

Gender WAS usually a reference to language. Things change, tho' not necessarily for the gooder.

the question should be "what sex are you?"
sex is for refering to biological categories, where gender is the behavioral, cultural, or psychological traits typically associated with one sex.

That depends. I could easily believe MP was actually intending to ask about the behavioral, cultural, or psychological traits of the posters here....

Whenever anybody points out the "gender/sex" definition distinction, I'm always sorely tempted to post that the possessive "its" does NOT take an apostrophe. And that "rating" is not the same as "classification," and that "quite" does not mean a lack of noise.

I usually restrain myself because the things which irritate me in a minor way are not the ones which irritate others.

As for gender, my daughter says mine is "SuzieQ."
