Abstract

Gender and sex are sensitive and intricate topics where biological, cultural, and social factors interact. This study explores the complex dynamics and mechanisms associated with gender and sex; it examines the various manifestations and interconnects that link them to nature or culture through an interdisciplinary analysis. The research revolves around the general background of gender studies; it includes a review of previous research and relevant theoretical transformations associated with gender and sex. A multidisciplinary methodology is adopted to discuss and analyse previous studies. The study reveals that, at the international level, gender and sex go beyond the traditional binary understanding of masculinity and femininity. However, the margin's identities hold resisting mechanisms to gender or feminism. It demonstrated that cultural constructs play a crucial role in shaping gender and perpetuating inequalities, but it calls for the creation of strategies that can promote gender equality in the global south. The study highlights the importance of analyzing social factors that influence gender and sex, such as geographical, educational, political, and economic power relations. The findings indicate the need for a more inclusive and equitable understanding of gender and sex that surpasses the conventional framework and respects diversity and differences. It highlights the significance of overcoming discriminatory factors and transitioning towards a more sexually just society. The study provides a comprehensive interpretation of the complexities surrounding gender and sex aiming for a positive contribution to global scientific debate for the sake of social justice, gender equality, and sustainable development.
