UNI101Y1 : Lecture on Lorber's Articles

Hijra are people who have a penis (not sure if sexually active)but look much like a female (perhaps for some feminine biologicalproperty). Wikipedia says they are "physiological males who havefeminine gender identity"

Also, I just came to know there are some more types of thirdgender people.

Now, is there really any BIOLOGICAL third gender which cannot becategorized as male or female? Or its always possible to categorizethem to male or female?

If male sexual orientation (homosexual versus heterosexual) has a heritability of 0.5, what does that mean? Select one: a. 50% of people who identify as homosexual have genes for male homosexuality. b. 50% of the population variability in male sexual orientation is due to individuals having different genes. c. An individual’s homosexuality is caused 50% by his genes and 50% by his environment. d. More than one of the above is true e. None of the above is true

can someone help me with this please

So, is homosexuality a choice? Many argue that being gay or lesbian is a choice the individual makes. If this is the case, how do you account for the variable physical and biological differences? I would like you to compile a list of behaviors that are predominately female or male and then determine if these behaviors are based on gender or sex differences. After completing the first part of the exercise, you should then discuss what criteria you used to differentiate between gender and sex.
