If sex is optional for gender, then how is gender different from fashion?
It is a good point IMO, and from the perspective of the theory of embodied cognition, to which I highly subscribe, I've always had a hard time thinking that male and female minds (intersex set aside) can just interchangeable. There are physical and physiological differences, such as hormones, that must make a difference in cognition and somehow must extend to behaviour/tastes.
It's an inference given a theory, which questions me. Not trying to be affirmative here.
