Gender
When we are born, we are divided into boys and girls, each with their own expectations and behavioural constraints. This binary division is increasingly being questioned because our identity is more complex than the simple division into male and female. Every categorisation leads to simplification, but is it perhaps also useful to clarify and name things?
And what does gender have to do with sexual preference?
Is the debate about this liberating or does it just make everything unnecessarily complicated?
