Trans inclusive gender and sex definitions for when you are put on the spot for a definition. Beforehand, it is important to note some important facts: - Trans individuals brains are wired more like those of those who are also the gender they identify with than that of their biological sex(and thus gender they were assigned becuase of it) </ref. - Defining gender identities such as man and woman as coming down to solely being," A woman is a female that can give birth" and a man being," A man is a male who has sperm and can impregnate people" is very discriminatory. Especially considering that there are many infertile cis men and women who may not be able to do these things for a number of reasons and is discriminatory of intersex people who possess both physical (meaning outside genetalia or reproductive organs) that come under male and female. - It must be taken into account also that chromosomes are not the only deciding factor when it comes to gender identity as there are many contributing factors such as chemical brain balances, a persons understanding of their own feelings/energy regarding their identity as well as the aspects of gender to take into account such as a persons environment, identity, biology and presentation. This does not mean that a person identifying with a gender identity outside of being a man or woman have a disease, they are not ill they are just a person who does not share the same gender identity as a man or woman and deserve just as much respect as anyone else. - These definitions are not steadfast and gender identity cannot always be condensed and squashed down into one line, this is just an attempt at defining concepts that are much more nuanced than what can be put into one line. This is simply a tool to be used to be inclusive of trans people when having to put a definition on gender identity concepts when in an argument or debate with another person who follows the logic of the second fact within this list. I invite you to take a listen to Emma Robins ( @emmaisafeminist) who has a fantastic rundown video on Tiktok with some great analogies to help understand their points.

As an additional side note I am aware these definitions may not be perfect, and I apologise in advance for any discomfort these definitions may cause, but they are a tad more inclusive than the standard Oxford dictionary definitions which are more so based on the definition of sex than any other aspects of gender identity. Now for the juicy part of the article, here are the definitions I have come up with:

Woman- An adult person who possesses a mindset, chemical brain balance, as well as but not always characteristics (physical and mental) special to or seen in those who identify as a woman or with womanhood.

Female- (indicative of a persons sex/genetalia) a person with genetalia including a Vagina but not always having Ovaries, Fallopian tubes, Womb or the ability to give birth/procreate.

Man- An adult person who possesses a mindset, chemical brain balance, as well as but not always characteristics (physical and mental) special to or seen in those who identify as a man or with manhood.

Male- (indicative of a persons sex/genetalia) a person with genetalia including a penis but not always having sperm, testicles or the ability to procreate.
