Human beings are a sexually dimorphic species. There are two sexes - male and female. That is a distinct concept from "gender", which may not match a person's biological sex, and may be "fluid" in the sense that it's discovered over time. It's also possible to describe gender in the form of a "continuum".
However, none of these things are "social constructs". In this context the term "social construct" would apply to things like gender roles that are entrenched in culture, e.g. associating cooking with femininity.
Now that I've answered your question, will you answer mine, or will you simply attempt to use my response to distract from what I suspect is your inability to logically defend your own views on this topic?
