Fifty years after the riddle first received public attention, one likely answer proves elusive: the surgeon is the boy's mother.

Gender and sex

"Sex" refers to the physical differences between people who are male, female, or intersex. A person typically has their sex assigned at birth based on physiological characteristics, including their genitalia and chromosome composition. This assigned sex is called a person’s "natal sex."

Gender, on the other hand, involves how a person identifies. Unlike natal sex, gender is not made up of binary forms. Instead, gender is a broad spectrum. A person may identify at any point within this spectrum or outside of it entirely.

cisgender

Someone who identifies with the gender that they were assigned at birth is called "cisgender."

Someone who is not cisgender and does not identify within the gender binary - of man or woman, boy or girl - may identify as nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer, among other identities.

A person whose gender identity is different from their natal sex might identify as transgender.
