Are you born as a male or female?

Biologically, individuals are typically assigned male or female at birth based on physical characteristics such as genitalia and chromosomal patterns. However, gender identity, which refers to how individuals perceive themselves and identify, can differ from this assignment and may not align with societal norms of male or female. Some people may identify as non-binary, genderqueer, or other identities that challenge the traditional binary understanding of gender. Thus, while biological sex is assigned at birth, gender identity can be more complex and varied.
