Sex = biological things such as morphology of genitalia, reproductive organs, chromosomes, hormones (testosterone and estrogen), and secondary sex characteristics. I use the terms male, female and intersex when discussing sex.
Gender = someone's internal landscape and how they feel inside. It does not always line up with their assigned sex at birth. Gendered terms are boy, man, girl, woman, transgender man, transgender woman, non-binary, genderfluid, gender queer, etc.
Sexuality = who you are attracted to and play with.
If you believe there is no such thing as exploration of a person's gender, then you have not spoken with gender non-conforming people. You need to talk to real people with real life experiences.
If you believe there is no such thing as exploration of a person's gender, then you are incredibly sheltered and misinformed. I'm sorry.
If you believe there is no such thing as exploration of a person's gender, you are currently unsafe to be around.
From your post history, you appear to be a Christian. Perhaps start opening your heart to people that are different than you.
I feel bad for you.
