Definition
GENDER as a noun:
1. (gender, grammatical gender) = a grammatical category in inflected languages governing the agreement between nouns and pronouns and adjectives; in some languages it is quite arbitrary but in Indo-European languages it is usually based on sex or animateness
2. (sex, gender, sexuality) = the properties that distinguish organisms on the basis of their reproductive roles; "she didn't want to know the sex of the foetus"
