Abstract
Sex and gender are very important social phenomena and that is created by society. Literature has explored various aspects of sex and gender and establishes the difference between gender identity and interpretation of gender from the viewpoint of sexuality. Biologically, sex and gender are two disparate phenomena. Sex is the biological characteristics of a particular human being and gender is the psychological approach to the physical attributes. Sex is essentially an adamant concept of contemporary biology, while gender is the apprehension of inner feelings. Gender is more of a concept about sexual categories and interpretation of self-identity. Literature has explored both of these existences and has tried to provide experience to individual readers about how sex and gender react as a social phenomenon.
