Equal Opportunity is a Good Thing In the widest sense‚ gender individuality refers to each person’s own sense of being male or female. Although there are cultural‚ psychological and social characteristics associated with a person’s gender identity‚ I have seen how both men and women – from different cultures - took part in the shaping of our nation’s naval forces‚ the society I belong.
