False. I see this statement thrown around a lot and in varying ways on the internet and it baffles me how many people get this simple concept wrong. Gender is NOT a social construct. Gender roles are. Being a boy or a girl is NOT a social construct. The idea that boys play with action figures and girls play with dolls is.
Gender does not equal gender role.
