Sexual Behav. 1457 (2010); see Stoller, A Contribution to the Study of
Gender Identity, 45 Int’l J. Psychoanalysis 220 (1964). The term appears
to have been coined a year or two earlier. See Haig, The Inexorable Rise
of Gender and the Decline of Sex: Social Change in Academic Titles,
1945–2001, 33 Archives Sexual Behav. 87, 93 (2004) (suggesting the
term was first introduced at 23rd International Psycho-Analytical Con-
gress in Stockholm in 1963); J. Meyerowitz, How Sex Changed 213 (2002)
(referring to founding of “Gender Identity Research Clinic” at UCLA in
1962). In his book, Sex and Gender, published in 1968, Robert Stoller
referred to “gender identity” as “a working term” “associated with” his
research team but noted that they were not “fixed on copyrighting the
term or on defending the concept as one of the splendors of the scientific
world.” Sex and Gender, p. viii.
