The correct definition is that sex clearly defines the characteristics both physically and biologically of one of the two binary sexes. Gender defines the cultural and social roles a group of people live by and the masculine and feminine gender may map to the male and female sex but it does not have to. Any other definition is 100% incorrect for some obvious reasons.

If masculine and feminine map 100% to male and female it is thus impossible for there to be a feminine male and a masculine female based directly on your definition. It becomes a dichotomy or a mutually exclusive condition bound by the clear definition that sex and gender are the same. They may be but more importantly they may not be and that is our primary issue.
