Let's say socially for now. Like, in terms of gender. What makes someone a male or female.

Gender? Gender identity is based on how the person feels, so nothing really makes the 'male' or 'female' in that aspect other than thought.

@the_man_with_questions: Ah ok ? well socially , rather then what you physically have like a penis , vagina etc, it would probably be how you feel , your outward appearance, and how others thinks of you , not exclusively but obviously if ur a biological male and put on a dress , it wouldn't make you a woman , you would be a crossdresser , if you then start having surgery or hormones and are actually living as a woman and people trat you and think of you as a woman then essentially your a woman , but yeah I might be hard for close friends and family to think other wise , but if they respect your wishes then it will help

But then again of course that still doesn't make you a WOMAN as you cant change your chromosomes but if you look feel and our treated then that's the best you can get ?

Just my thoughts btw , may not be entirely accurate for all people but its just me

Gender? Well I guess it's based on how that person feels. I'm not the one to follow that method :V

You are a man if you can open peanut butter jars.

You are a woman if you can dance.

Both known for their feminine voices, coincidence? Or were they hiding something?

maybe but I don't think dancing is necessarily a 'gay' thing, it was a way for people to enjoy, socialize, meet, be musical before the age of phones and the internets

Five factors: chromosomes, gonads, hormones, reproductive anatomy, and genitalia. If they all line up a certain way, the person's a male, another way, female, any other way, some variation of intersex.

This is sex in the concrete sense. Sex in the non-concrete sense is gender, which to my mind is correct if and only if it conforms to what is concrete. In application, this means that society's expectations of women, for example, are flawed if they are not based on physical characteristics particular to the female sex, and a woman's gender identity is also flawed if she fails to identify herself as a woman.

I guess I'll have to expand on my answer from HeroUps2112's thread.

A big erect penis and a fat juicy pussy?

Biology. I mean sex wise it's how you are born biologically. Gender wise I don't care that concept is stupid. How you born determine your sex not society. Liking chickflix, my little pony, wearing pretty skirt and enjoying playing with barbie does not make you a girl, is what you are born with. Want to change your body to a female, you still a guy, just because you can do stuff that makes you look less weird by society viewpoint does not make you a female, just a good looking guy that can wear a skirt pretty nice. The point is stop making this issue complicated.

@jgames: but the issue is complicated. Not wanting to deal with a big complicated issue doesn't make someone right, it makes them ignorant.

Gender identity is a huge complicated issue that is only made worse by small minded people that pretend it's just people being ridiculous.

Biologically speaking... The genes that are active in the sexual chromosomes. In some cases, a weird event of recombination may lead to a female XY or a male XX, though both are infertile.

As I see it, there's no simple answer to that question.

Everyone saying chromosomes is wrong. You can have XX chromosomes and still male. And have XY chromosomes and still be female. You can XXY chromosomes. XXXX hormones. XYY.

Genitals? You can be born with both. You can be born with undeveloped ones. You can be born sterile. You can be born without testes or ovaries. Enlarged clitoris.

Breasts? Everyone has those. Men can even have enlarged breast.

Men are better at keeping a job, women are better at sewing and cooking. The difference is apparent.
