As a whole, Lorber uses “two familiar areas of social life - sports and technological competence - to show how myriad physiological differences are transformed into similar-appearing, gendered social bodies.” In sports, several women were found to have chromosomal ambiguity. Then tests are being used to determine sex by simple genital inspection (Kolata 1992).

Is human sexuality inborn or socially constructed? Introduction Sexuality is a complex topic to discuss. The difficulty arises when determining whether sexuality is inborn or socially constructed. The world today is at crossroads to determine whether sexuality is a natural issue or an environment influenced issue (Nurture). We have many pressure groups lobbying governments to accept all form of sexuality as a natural issue on one hand, while the religious movements on the other hand are also pressuring governments to not recognize any form of sexuality other than that which is believed to be conventional sexuality (attraction to the opposite sex).
