Survey analyzes gender-related notions and frameworks, suggesting two approaches for categorization.
Categorial gender theory is concerned with frameworks for categorizing human individuals in terms of gender and gender-related notions. A survey of gender frameworks is presented. We observe two alternative ways of conveying similar information: one via features and the other via process algebraic descriptions of gender lifecycles. The development of categorial gender theory is compared with the Formal Gender Theory that was previously developed in collaboration with Laurens Buijs.
