Summary/Abstract: The notion of gender does not blur the boundary between male and female but suggests that it is time to turn our attention to outlines that we have not seen for a long time: the outlines of all such persons who do not conform with the standards of the binary conception of gender for reasons such as inborn characteristics, environmental factors, culture, personal life, and so on. This state of affairs must be kept in mind by politicians, high state officials, academicians, lawyers, and other important stakeholders when it comes to real democratic public debate on the ratification of the Istanbul Convention, as well as the change of attitudes and expectations of the Bulgarian society in respect to this problem. The present article is an attempt to search for some solutions concerning this problematic field with a metaethical focus on the investigation of the meanings of terms used in our ethical judgments about the nature of the notions of sex and gender in the Bulgarian linguistic community.
