The conversation around gender is suddenly everywhere, and for some, it can be confusing. The concept of gender versus sex is a relatively recent invention in human history. Consider that the distinction between biological sex and gender as a role was introduced in 1955, and people still don’t seem to understand the difference. How many times have you seen the question “what is your gender?” and the options are “M” and “F”? But not having a strong understanding of gender can lead to serious issues in your workplaces.
