A Change of Genre

George, Ethan and Justin were having a hushed conversation in the back seat of the van as we drove to the grocery store. 

"My friend's uncle's friend changed his genre," George said quietly.

"What?" exclaimed Ethan.

"No way!" Justin said.

"Yeah, he did.  He changed his genre," George assured them.

"Wow, changed his genre," Ethan repeated thoughtfully.

I'm still not sure how you arrived at this conversation (nor do I really want to know) but I'm pretty sure the word you're looking for is "gender".
