As sex took on erotic qualities in 20c., gender came to be used for "sex of a human being," often in feminist writing with reference to social attributes as much as biological qualities; this sense first attested 1963. Gender-bender is first attested 1980, with reference to pop star David Bowie. 词根记忆: n. (生理上的)性;(名词,代词等的)性What's the gender of the new born baby?新生儿是男孩还是女孩? |
