Gender simply means a class between masculine and feminine while sexuality means the capacity for sexual feelings. According to cavallaro, the beginning of the term 'gender' into the vocabularies of critical and cultural theory has been motivated primarily by the necessity of surpassing reductionist accounts of feminity and masculinity as coterminous with an individual's biological sex, and of stressing their socio-political determination (2001).

In the movie, it can be seen clearly that male and female are divided into two groups. The male groups have more power than the female group. For example, male have the right to choose the women they like, while female just have to wait to be picked up.
