In an age not long ago the terms "sex" and "gender" were used interchangeably to refer to your biological reproductive organs you were born with. We still do this today with animals, e.g. there's not as to date anything resembling a bull that while having the sex organs (penis, testicles, etc.) it does is yet called a cow (the female of the species). Any how, we humans have become so intelligent now we have decided through some magnificent reasoning that the sex of a human need not match their gender, since gender is allegedly the product of behavior and therefore a psychological state conditioned by one's own culture. For example, if mommy gives her biological son (a "male" for those who don't know what "son" means) the environment of a "girl" of said culture, then the child should take on the gender of a female over time. Or, perhaps a child grows up feeling a certain way and interprets that feeling as being a gender which conflicts with his/her/it/ze/zer/che/chow/ding/dong/lang/kong/ biological sex. Of course, if your gender is just that, a social construct, then have at it! Construct away! Hell, you deserve after all to construct the gender of choice. In fact, this could become a great business venture, helping people construct new and better genders. Who cares about gender dysphoria since that is just "the man" trying to oppress us! Right? Make some cash and help others who want to express their inner sexual being even if it means being assigned the gender of a being from Alpha Centauri A system. Whatever you do, don't be dull and go with "genderless." Oh, please don't! Be colorful! Explore the full spectrum of light!

First there is no way that you can know that information regarding environment since Alarti does not know.
Second if you keep spilling the beans then we will have to throw you out of the bricklayers society. The conspiracy to hide this information from Alarti is becoming too hard to keep concealed with all of these loose lips in academia.
