(The first sentence in the third paragraph should state…) “Though sex and gender have been used interchangeably at least as early as the fourteenth century, this usage was not common by the late 1900s.” (*1800s is a typo-please fix) (John Money began his social science in the mid 1990’s. The conceptualization of the word Gender did not change until the late 1900s, NOT the late 1800s) 184.97.75.129 (talk) 14:00, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
