I apologize to everyone; this is not an article about sexual intercourse.

While I am certain there are some out there who read Bilerico that may not know what sex is, I'm going to look here at what it is that make up males and females.

Not men and women. Men and women I will cover in my next one, on Gender.

A short while ago I wrote an article on What is Trans*.

As some noted back then, it was a kind of Trans 101 post. Some in the trans community said that I was using Trans as just a different way of saying Transgender. I assert that's incorrect. Others have suggested that I reduced transsexuals to people who transition on the basis of social roles. That is also incorrect. The category, trans, is about social elements. The rest gets more complicated, and I will explore that in future articles to make that more clear.
