Sociology is the study of society, social relationships, and social institutions. The sociological perspective includes the examination of social structures, social institutions, social interactions, and social change. It emphasizes the importance of understanding how society influences individuals' behaviors, beliefs, and attitudes.
The feminist perspective within sociology would likely examine patterns of male dominance in cross-sex conversations as a reflection of broader power dynamics and inequalities between men and women in society. They would view this as part of the ongoing societal struggle for gender equality and challenge the norms and structures that perpetuate male dominance in communication.
One way to determine someone's gender is by looking at their physical characteristics, such as their reproductive organs or secondary sex characteristics like facial hair or breast development. Another way is to ask the person how they identify their gender.
Sociology IN nursing would address sociological knowledge which would help the nurse do her or his job. The "big three" of sociology (gender, race and class) would be examples of how this might work- for example do women who are diabetic have a different way of dealing with their diabetes based on their social gender roles? Sociology OF nursing would address the study of nurses themselves and how social factors or forces affect the roles of the nurse and the evolution of the profession of nursing.

Gender has a number of meanings.In common speech, it's often just a synonym for "biological sex," i.e. whether one is male or female.In sociology and psychology, it refers to sexual identity and sex-related social roles.In linguistics, gender defines a system of noun classification and agreement that is often correlated with sex but doesn't need to be. Most of the familiar Western languages have sex-related gender systems, as do Semitic languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. In gendered languages, adjectives (and sometimes verbs, as in Semitic languages) generally agree in gender with their associated nouns. Some nouns have a grammatical gender that matches their natural gender (i.e., their sex), but some do not; the Latin word petra is feminine, even though there's nothing inherently female about a rock. There are some gender systems where the opposition is not sex-related at all, but rather animate/inanimate or person/nonperson. The Swahili system of noun classification, which has more than a dozen separate agreement classes, is also sometimes referred to as a gender system.
