People often use the word 'GENDER'as a synonym for the word 'SEX' but these are two different terms,with very different meanings.
Sex is the biological differenses between males and femails.
Gender is the set of roles,behaviour patterns,values and responsibilities women and men,girls and boys have learned.or end up playing,in their family,community and n society at large.these gender specific roles are socially constructed and therefore changeable as they depend on historical,cultural,pulitical and social contexts.
