orstcs!nathan says:
	Julian May's gender is male.
	Julian May's sex is (I am told) undeniably female.

	If you can't figure out the difference, go back to 
	grammar school.

My Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary (1979) lists "SEX" as the first
definition of "gender".  I'm sure that Nathan has some subtle distinction
in mind, but if you don't tell us, Nathan, what good have you done?
And keep the insults ("go back to grammar school") to yourself, please.
