He kept conflating sex and gender but other than that he made some good points.

Oxford dictionary explains the genesis of the word gender. It has always been biological.
a. gen. Males or females viewed as a group; = sex n.1 1. Also: the property or fact of belonging to one of these groups.
Originally extended from the grammatical use at sense 1 (sometimes humorously), as also in Anglo-Norman and Old French. In the 20th cent., as sex came increasingly to mean sexual intercourse (see sex n.1 4b), gender began to replace it (in early use euphemistically) as the usual word for the biological grouping of males and females. It is now often merged with or coloured by sense 3b.

Uh.. since when are they different? Well, I mean ACTUALLY different, not different because well... somebody trying to push a silly agenda said they were different?
