gender:

The state of being male or female, as in gender-identity and gender-roles . In every day speech, sex and gender are used interchangeably; in the social sciences however, a distinction is made between them, sex refering to the biological makeup of the human body, its genital configuration, while gender refers to the social meanings and characteristics associated with certain types of people.

Quote: From Graffiti. Two Thousand Years of Wall Writing by Robert Reisner: ' Love is many gendered thing .' (This saying paraphrases: Love is many splendored thing .)
