In class we did an activity about Sex, Gender, and Sexuality and discussed in groups what we would define each as and answered a few more questions on top of the subject. This got me thinking a lot because the word Sexuality my group had was very confusing to my group and I because the book would go back to it being a big part of gender. So as we are answering the questions and getting into further conversation about the word and meaning sexuality we found multiple means from multiple views and perspectives of what angle your coming form. To further understand the meaning Sexuality more and really deiced if it is only romantic or not I went on YouTube and found this video that better helps me understand the meaning of Sexuality and also Sex and Gender.

This video pretty much explained to a T for me. Which I now understand that All three of those words are really all based off of Gender Roles in the long run. We would like to say sometimes gender roles have no meaning in a topic of what sex you are but, really we use gender roles to identify the sex of a person. We also use gender roles to form someones gender in society, and also ones sexuality is often based off of gender roles and where one person grew up and learned to be the person one is. It is all generally one meaning that we as people but into categories.
I agree with this very much! I wrote about sexuality for my blog too because it is really such a broad topic. There are many different views and definitions people have for sexuality but it always comes back to the fact that everyone is being judged and put into categories of society.
