Please make sure to add this man had gender dyspmorphia himself and hated his genitals and often spoke in AUTOBUOGRAPHY about how he wanted to castrate himself. His research has not been accredited by the scientific community. Please state all the fact about this mentally ill person so other mentally ill people don't get hurt by his pyscopathic work. 2607:FEA8:9541:16C0:5189:674A:F71E:F470 (talk) 12:28, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Actualcpscm (talk) 12:34, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Citation 47 is broken

When you try to check Citation 47, you are redirected to an error page, even though the article named still exists in the site. ThrowawayEpic1000 (talk) 17:47, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Funcrunch (talk) 19:55, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

it is not fact

it should be added that Gender and sex being different is not fact but it is actually opinion 163.232.0.8 (talk) 02:36, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide sources for any change you wish to make, source sufficient to establish that what our article currently says is not an accurate summation of existing views, and their relative weight of acceptance. Nil Einne (talk) 10:00, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is TRUE. It IS simply an opinion.

Formed, and backed up by pseudo-scientists and activists.

This video shows that the man who stated "gender is a social construct" MADE IT UP:

The meaning of every single word in the dictionary is a social construct. That's true for words like gender and sex, exactly like it's true for words like car and truck. WhatamIdoing (talk) 21:41, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 21 December 2023

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Sex–gender distinction. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

(The first sentence in the third paragraph should state…) “Though sex and gender have been used interchangeably at least as early as the fourteenth century, this usage was not common by the late 1900s.” (*1800s is a typo-please fix) (John Money began his social science in the mid 1990’s. The conceptualization of the word Gender did not change until the late 1900s, NOT the late 1800s) 184.97.75.129 (talk) 14:00, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
