Yep. Handy guide for a complex and oft-confusing issue.

Sex =  Deals with biology, physiology, chromosomes, genetics. A person's body.

Gender = Mental, Psychological, Emotional, and Social. How a person feels, thinks, acts, and presents themselves to the world.

Sex is usually an Either/Or (Male or XY, Female or XX), with the exception of Intersex conditions.

Gender is more like a spectrum, with variances and different ways a person's mind associates with their physical traits and with social roles.

Gender is the more significant one, because it involves almost every single aspect of how a person relates to their own body and to the world around them. It is how you view yourself, how you view your body and your identity, how you chose to dress or act, and how you associate with the world and with traditional gender roles. It may or may not result in altering of Sex through hormones and surgery, if the Gender and Sex do not align.
