Question

How does gender identity contribute to sexual expression?

Answer 1

Gender identity refers to the sex that an individual is born in; male, female or transgender. Sexual expression refers to what a person truly feels. In the conventional society we live in, an individual whose gender identity is male from birth, but feels very feminine from within, cannot express themselves being sexually interested in other men. Gender identity refers to one sticking to their conventional roots in terms of sexual expression. A man may not necessarily fall in love with a woman or vice versa. Gender identity tends to contribute to sexual expression where one is expected to be attracted to opposite gender. However, this may not always be true. A man can be attracted to another man and woman to another woman. Gender identity has little to do with sexual expression.
