Male, Female; Masculine, Feminine: What's the Diff?

Is sex the same as gender? If different, how? Hodges and Vowell start our third season of the From the Center Podcasts by diving into the thorny issue of gender. With no more authority on the subject than speaking as human beings, the two comment on an article that came from the Vatican in July of this year entitled, "Male and Female He Created Them, Toward a Path of Dialogue On the Question of Gender Theory in Education," (which can be read on line here). The document attempts to lay out "steel man" arguments on both sides. While the document is a needed starting point for cultural address, as it intends, Hodges and Vowell discuss its points in some detail, and consider the cultural ramifications of a culture of self-identity.
