I really can't imagine why the race matters.

It doesn't, of course. But the goal is to equate "sexual orientation" with such in-born, immutable, visible traits as gender or race.

gender is a word that pertains to grammar (masculine and feminine); french--le, la spanish el, la etc.

the word sex is the original question, as in sex?: m or f

gender: male, female, trans, both other.... this word is interestingly hijacked
