Not at all. They're the same thing, but that depend entirely on your epistemic source for truth, reality, and morality.

" No it does not. "

Yes, it in fact does.

" Gender is not associated with biological differences."

Which is a mere claim - not an argument for a claim.

" that does not change the fact that there is huge literature behind it explaining concept of gender."

Which is nothing more than reasserting the above claim without argument. Your claim that men or institutions have wrote prolifically asserting your claim is not an argument to support it - on the contrary - it's an argument ad populum fallacy - the antithesis of an argument.

I didn't offer an argument because I'm not the once making claims. You have made repeated claims and assertions without evidence or argument. That which can be asserted without evidence or argument can be dismissed without evidence or argument.

My counter points are as follows. What the dictionary says is irrelevant. Modern Linguistics definitions are literally established by popular, cultural opinion and do not necessarily constitute reality. If you get your reality solely from popular opinion - there is a very good chance you're out of touch with it.

" I do not understand why u are talking about arguments."

Because you made an unsubstantiated claim.

" I just said that you confused gender with sex. "

Which is a claim - not an argument for a claim.

" Definition of concepts can be different in your imagination as I see. "

It has nothing to do with concept or definition, but of epistemology. and yours apparently comes from popular, subjective, and arbitrary,cultural opinion.

" Concept is concept, not a theory that needs an argument. "

Concept means that you have conceptualized or can conceive of something in the mind - that you can says nothing about it being true - and yes - a concept does in fact require an argument - otherwise it's just a fantasy.

" If you wanna use term gender to refer to sex just use sex, why use term gender? "

I'm glad you asked. Sex is the biological make up of an individual and gender is the behavior associated with it. However, one necessarily assumes the other - IF you have a sound epistemology to ground you in objective reality. Progressives thinking that men and women can identify as any gender they want - or not at all - is solid evidence they don't have a solid epistemology. Let me know if I can assist you further.

" You are using a context to critisize or make fun of something without proper structure. "

Which is yet another empty claim based on your assumed position - not an argument for it.

" Anyway, just wanted to let you know I find it strange with using gender with "

Given the fact that you assume something as true that you can only conceptualize - but not argue or provide evidence for - I'll bet you do find it strange - but that says more about you than this issue.

"Have a nice day."

You do the same.

I'm not saying all men have to act exactly like every other man, or the same for women, but what I am saying is that their are behavioral characteristics which are common in each sex and point directly to their sex/gender make up which they were * born with * not * assigned * or * chose* ,

The argument that there are not is largely rooted in the " progressive " movement to push egalitarianism - which has expressed itself - among many other ways - as radical feminism and the LGBTQ movement. .

" Why? "

Because whether you do or not determines whether what you're calling a " definition " lines up with reality. Men will exhibit behavior consistent with their biological makeup - which may vary a bit from individual to individual, but will ultimately exhibit characteristics which is common to all men - the same is true of women.

This is true regardless of the fact that you have masculine women and/or feminine men. These types of rare characteristics in men and women are not an indicator that male/female sexes produces varying, non gender binaries - it exhibits corrupt behavior your world view can not account for.

" Gender is used to refer to societal norms and behaviors, "

I agree and disagree. This is true only insomuch as it applies * within * each respective sex and the gender behavior which points to it - not to society a as a whole which would include both sexes being able to " choose " any gender they like - regardless as to whether it is typical of their sex.

All " societal norms " means is that this is how most people are behaving - Which literally means.- If most people went around sticking themselves in the eye with a fork - that would be the societal norm. It says nothing about the mental or moral soundness of the behavior or as to whether or not it should be adopted as a characteristically typical behavior of all humans.

" it does not gave you clue about biological parts of your body "

This is false and demonstrates your faulty world view and epistemology alluded to above. It in fact does, but you would need a world view and epistemology to determine this. Progressives have rejected this in the form of Judaeo/Christian values. .

Gender necessarily assumes the sex you have. If you describe behavior consistent with the female gender - it can then be deduced you're dealing with the female sex - if they have female organs. The fact that there are masculine bull dykes in society who do not necessarily meet feminine behavioral characteristics and men who do - makes this no less true. You can not simply say " Well there are men who are feminine and women who are masculine - ergo, we can then assume that gender binaries are unworkable and should reject them " This is essential what you and progressive are by implication, arguing

" Why you assume they are related? "

I just explained it above.
