Sex is an anatomical description. There are 2 sexes, male and female (nouns).
Gender is a taxonomic term to classify nouns in Indoeuropean languages. There are 3 genders, masculine, feminine and neuter (adjectives meaning like a male, like a female.) The word gender was adopted by the psychosocial literature to describe the state of mind of those who believed themselves to be the opposite sex. So a man dressing and living as a woman was stated to have feminine (female like) gender but male sex and visa versa.
A case of a man showing up at work dressed as a woman was fired. The case went to court as "gender discrimination" and the judge ruled against the plaintiff as Civil Rights law does not mention the word gender. It forbids sex discrimination and not gender. This is why Biden wishes to add this to the law.
The political left wants these 2 words to be confused with each other so that it becomes part of the vernacular, which will allow them to get this legilation that they so dessire. Please don't assist them and remember that there are 2 SEXES and 3 GENDERS - that has been expanded to >50 by now.

Gender and sex are not synonyms.
