    Sense of Gender Award was founded in 2001 by the Japanese Association for Gender Fantasy and Science Fiction(G-Ken) as a "sister award" of James Tiptree Award, in order to celebrate works from various fields including literature, movies, or manga, which invite us to reconsider gender profoundly and excitingly. This award has two divisions: the domestic division is for those works by Japanese artists, while the international division is for translated works launched in Japan.http://gender-sf.org/sog-en.html
