"Sex" defines what is biologically present, whereas "gender" defines what society expects of persons of different sexes.  The distinction is important in law, as it tends to forbid discrimination on the basis of either, e.g. effeminate men cannot be fired for not acting according to their "gender". In other areas the distinction is primarily important for more abstracted social and legal arguments, rather than everyday use.

The term ''sex'' is often used to denote the activity of sexual relations ("sexual intercourse"), and as such it is subject to laws of social conduct. In mammals many other higher-order animals, the sex act is performed when the male of the species inserts the penis into the female's vagina, followed by the [[ejaculation]] of [[sperm]] that fertilizes the [[egg]].
