DianneMillen? first introduced me to the idea of a difference between gender and sex.

I think this is a good starting point for a more complex less easy to state separation.

(Counterexample: the gender of a plug on a cable is anatomical, not social.)

A more complex version is to split gender identity into: genetic, reproductive, functional, presented, parental, legal, daily, sexual, conventional and personal. --Pallando
