gendered

Marked by sex

Gendered describes something marked by or associated with gender distinctions.

A gendered pronoun like "she" or "he" specifies sex, unlike "they." Gendered language assigns masculine or feminine forms to words.

Gendered expectations are social assumptions tied to being male or female: The workplace still has deeply gendered assumptions about who handles childcare.
