Physical gender

A person's physical gender is a social or cultural construction in which different body parts such as genitals, hormones and chromosomes are assigned a gender. For example, in our society, a penis is regarded as a code for masculinity. By "construction" we mean that there is no natural physical gender, but that our society constructs it, for example by expecting all women to have ovaries. However, this idea is wrong and discriminatory, e.g. for intersex people whose bodies do not fit into the two-gender system. Moreover, physical characteristics say nothing about which gender a person identifies with. For example, there can also be men who have breasts and a vagina.
