Oxford Pocket 1911 is not too bad...
The Concise Oxford Dictionary Sixth Edition 1976
GENDER: n. Grammatical classification (or one of the classes) of objects roughly corresponding to the two sexes and sexlessness (see MASCULINE, FEMININE, NEUTER, COMMON); (of nouns and pronouns) property of belonging to such class, (of adjective) appropriate form for accompanying a noun of one such class; (joc.) one's sex.
[and joc. means "jocular, used only in humorous of playful style"]
yeah my "longman's dictionary of contemporary english" 1990 says the same thing. But it does have a second definition : "2. tech or euph : the division into male or female, sex" soooo - what does euphemism mean? mr longman again : "the use of a pleasanter, less direct name for something thought to be unpleasant". I can't recall if I've ever mentioned that feminazis are just a rebranded-recycled kind of jew-kristian puritan scum.
Gender as a replacement for sex, is the modern ruling feminazi's imposition of a minority agenda (to dominate our thinking by changing our speech) upon the majority.
