This distinction between sex and gender first emerged in the 1960s in writing by psychologists such as Robert Stoller (1968). Prior to this, 'gender' referred solely to grammatical gender, that is, the classification of words as masculine or feminine, as in the French 𝑙𝑒 and 𝑙𝑎, or Spanish 𝑒𝑙 and 𝑙𝑎.

Kitabın Özeti Mahiyetinde
Why is it a problem if all females are expected to act feminine and all males to act masculine? Part of the answer is that femininity and masculinity are defined hierarchically: generally, becoming feminine means assuming a subordinate position relative to men. For example, learning to act feminine means learning to walk and move in a more constrained and less confident way than men (see Young 1980).
Yet if the problem with gender is only that at present gender is hierarchical, then the solution would be to redefine the genders nonhierarchically. But Butler thinks that having two genders at all is a problem. She believes it [is] undesirable for societies to expect males and females to act in systematically different ways. This is undesirable (1) because it means that anyone who does not sufficiently conform to their expected gender will be marginalized and frowned upon - and this is likely to be all of us at some time or other. Moreover, (2) if there are two genders in society, then inevitably they will appear to need one another as complements and so heterosexuality will seem normal and natural. Thus, having two genders means that homo- or bisexual people will be treated as deviant and unnatural.
