Binary sex segregation refers to the division or separation of individuals into exclusively male or female spaces, roles, or activities. This practice assumes that there are only two distinct biological sexes, male and female, and that each sex has specific social roles and expectations. Binary sex segregation can be seen in various aspects of society, such as public restrooms, sports teams, schools, and workplaces. It often reinforces gender stereotypes and can limit individuals' opportunities and choices based on their assigned sex at birth. | Binary sex segregation refers to the division or separation of individuals into exclusively male or female spaces, roles, or activities.
