I answered this question earlier that I think designation sex to a bathroom is less liberty than allowing a bathroom to just be a place to expel waste. I figured you would remember.

Man and Woman are defined as male and female which are sex terms. That is my point. Pull out a dictionary. You can redefine them or create new terms, but the current terms are what they are.
I agree the current definitions are pretty good. maybe you should learn them.

Okay Dictionary defintion

Gender: gen·der
ˈjendər/Submit
noun
1.
the state of being male or female (typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones).

Sex: sex
seks/Submit
noun
1.
(chiefly with reference to people) sexual activity, including specifically sexual intercourse.
"he enjoyed talking about sex"
synonyms: sexual intercourse, intercourse, lovemaking, making love, sex act, (sexual) relations; More
2.
either of the two main categories (male and female) into which humans and many other living things are divided on the basis of their reproductive functions.



Take your own advice now.
You can redefine them or create new terms, but the current terms are what they are.

Thanks for playing !
