    Sexual orientation and gender identity refer to complex topics about how people understand themselves. Some key points: 1) Sex refers to biological traits assigned at birth, while gender involves social and personal identity that can differ from sex. 2) Gender identity involves a person's internal sense of gender, which may align with or differ from their sex assigned at birth. 3) Sexual orientation involves attraction to others and covers identities like lesbian, gay, bisexual, and more. 4) While related, gender identity is about personal identity and sexual orientation is about attraction; acceptance of all people is important.

    Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity

    Narration
    People are free on how they should express themselves in their own way and but many have been
    suffering because of the injustices and cruelty of the society. The reason being that, numerous cases
    have been plucking up ever since this issue happened. Other people throw hate, abuse, harass or worst
    even kill them.

    Definition
    Sex refers to a person's biological status and is typically assigned at birth, usually on the basis of external
    anatomy and gender is often defined as a social construct of norms, behaviors and roles that varies
    between societies and over time. The term sexuality is a word we use to talk about how we understand
    our bodies and how we understand our relationships. Gender identity is one's own internal sense of self
    and their gender, whether that is man, woman, neither or both.

    Description
    Sexuality is dynamic and always changing. Some examples of sexual orientation are lesbian, gay,
    heterosexual, straight, asexual, bisexual, queer, polysexual, and pansexual (also called multisexual and
    omnisexual). A person's gender identity may be the same as or different from their birth-assigned sex. It
    is their sense of being a woman, a man, both, neither, or anywhere along the gender spectrum.

    Classification and Exemplification


    This understanding includes all aspects of who we are – our values and beliefs, bodies, desires,
    relationships, gender and our thoughts and feelings about all of these. Because our sexuality is made up
    of so many different components, our understanding of our own sexuality is ever-changing and unique
    to each person.

    Comparison and Contrast


    One's gender identity can be the same or different from their sex assigned at birth. Sexual orientation is
    an inherent or immutable enduring emotional, romantic or sexual attraction to other people. On the
    other hand, gender identity is how individuals perceive themselves and what they call themselves. To
    cut it short, sexual orientation is about who you are attracted to, while gender identity is about which
    sex you identify with. But unlike gender expression, gender identity is not outwardly visible to others.

    Cause and Effect


    This wave of gender war occurred in 19 th to early 20th century. The Feminist Movement and the Men’s
    Rights Movement can be viewed as polarizing opposites but while this doesn’t necessary constitute a
    ‘Gender War’, it does cause misunderstanding and resentment in both parties. The more radicalized in
    both movements seem to display a blatant bitterness towards the opposite gender. The reasons for that
    may vary person to person and at different levels.

    Problem-Solution
    Often we may discover that different parts of our lives may interact with each other in confusing or
    affirming ways. But in this instance, acceptance is the only thing we need to do.

    Persuasion
    We have no right to dictate another person’s sexual identity.We have no right to decide what a person
    does with her or his or their own body. We do have a duty to respect and that is to preserve the
    freedoms of others. This should apply everywhere. No matter what they say, no matter what they do,
    acceptance with truth and justice is the only way to a better future.
