No, actually there is a clear distinction Sex is physical e.g. organs & hormones etc Gender is societal e.g. How men & women act & dress etc

"How people act and dress?" That's just personality, or sexual expression. A woman expressing some masculine traits is still female.

Exactly, gender is the societal standards around how each sex expresses themselves.

And the idea of "a person's gender" makes no sense if gender is the standard expression spectrum itself, belonging to no individual.

Yeah, "gender identity" makes sense only re: neurological defects, mental illness, or chromosome abnormalities. Otherwise, playing pretend.

Their objective is to be able to define what sex they are without question. Everything else is in service to that, as inconsistent as it is.

They first give "gender" a separate, fuzzy definition from sex, then conflate the two to diminish the latter.
