Do you believe there are 2 genders

'Cept there are several definitions. If you choose a definition which is the same as biological sex then why bother with the word 'gender' at all?

...It's because they essentially are the same thing...

It isn't a mental disorder any more than being gay, straight, Bi or Asexual plus other sexualities is a mental disorder.

In which case there's no point in there being two different terms.

I prefer this:

The World Health Organization states, "'ex' refers to the biological and physiological characteristics that define men and women," and "'gender' refers to the socially constructed roles, behaviours, activities, and attributes that a given society considers appropriate for men and women."

You answered the OPs question..
"FOR MEN AND WOMEN"... 2 genders/biological sexes.

There's 2 genders . Gender isn't a social construct. Science 101 xy chromosome for a male and xx for a female . It's the social justice warrior movement who feel a slight bit of anxiety and say they don't feel their a male or female

That's your sex. Your XX or XY chromosomes is your sex, what you have between you legs.

What men and women usually wear, do, like etc is gender, which is a social construct.

You argued that "Part of the problem is that the concept of biological sexual division into male and female gets confused with the concept of gender"

If both definitions of "biological sex" and "gender" point to there only being two 'genders' (for the purposes of the OPs question) then why is it a "problem" to confuse the two terms?

Because gender is not actually reducible to biological sex and is based on behaviour and identity. It follows that there's no reason why, for example, I cannot subvert gender conventions or mix them up.

Ok, but you can't just add new ones to your liking.

I agree but I'm open to persuasion if someone could define a gender that wasn't obviously orientated to the traditional binary conceptions and represented an actual life/identity.

You hear this same illogical, nonsensical argument from cultural marxists all the time. When you tell them that biology only allows for two genders they tell you that you are confusing gender with sex as if that addresses your argument, which it doesn't. Your argument is that biology defines our sex/gender and that there is no difference between these two terms. Their argument is that there is more than two genders. The problem that they have with this is that it is not backed by biology so they work around this by saying well sex is biological and gender is something else. What is gender? well its an english word that used to refer to sex before they hijacked and applied their ideological interpretation to it. Gender is something that according to them is an identity that is defined by our feelings. This is is not a universally accepted scientific fact but an ideological belief. So it makes no sense for them to tell you that you are confusing sex by gender because you do not subscribe to their ideology which preaches that there is a difference between the two. This is something nobody believes in but them.

Now, is gender defined by our feelings? can there be more than two genders? The answer is most definitely not. If our feelings do not conform with our biological reality they are considered wrong. A person that feels they are a tree is not a tree because their biological reality does not conform with that feeling. Hence that feeling is wrong. Their feelings are the result of nurture/psychological abnormality as apposed to nature. Its something that needs to be discouraged as apposed to encouraged.

Read my comments above pls.

How is gender in any way backed up by biology.

Refer me to a biologist who says that being a male in sex must mean that he has to be tough, logical, successful (gender).

You can be a female in sex and exhibit the characteristics of the male gender and be a male in sex and have the characteristics of the female gender.
