Stones, like all inanimate objects, do not have gender. Gender is a social and cultural construct that applies to living beings, particularly humans, and reflects their biological sex, social roles, and identities.
While some cultures may associate certain stones with specific genders, this is purely symbolic and not indicative of an inherent gender in the stone itself. For example:
- Rose quartz is often associated with femininity and love due to its pink color.
- Obsidian is sometimes linked to masculinity and strength because of its dark and sharp appearance.
These associations are based on human perceptions and interpretations, not on any inherent gender qualities of the stones themselves.
Stones are simply geological formations without the biological or social components necessary for gender.
