Deskripsi
The separation of sex and gender poses an inherent conflict between the necessity for legislation to not diminish biological sex differences, and the freedom of an individual to self-identify as wherever in the gender spectrum. Gender «X» is a trending compromise of this conflict. This paper revisits an old case in colonial America to illustrate the significances and limits of adding «X» as a third gender option.
