Sex and gender
The difference between the concept of sex is that it is biological my body parts are of that of a female. The concept of gender is that society treats me as a female, that i take on the female look and role. The elevance of this distinction to Psychologists is that people may be confused with their gender, and come to psychologist for clarification on their gender identity.
“gender identities are constructed” this statements to my understanding means that society has built up my expectations of what my role should be as a female is in society.
