- The Gender (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɣɛndər]) is a stream in the Dutch province of North Brabant. It originates in originally marshy flatlands near Steensel and flows through Veldhoven and its eastern district Meerveldhoven in a general east-northeast direction towards Eindhoven. The Gender is one of many small streams that drain what once was the marshy heath and moorland of eastern North Brabant and the Kempen plateau. Similar streams include the Dommel, Kleine Dommel, , Tongelreep, Aa, Binnendieze and Run. All of these streams at one point or other merge to finally form River Dieze in Den Bosch, which in turn flows into River Maas. Near Eindhoven, the Gender originally flowed just north of the medieval city walls, serving as the north part of the city moat, to end in confluence with the Dommel stream. As early as the fifteenth century, its course was diverted southward through the city centre, to provide the city with freshwater supplies and fire-extinguishing means. By the 19th century, the stretch within the old city had been filled in and the Gender now ended in De Vest, the city moat, which itself was connected to the Dommel.Archaeological excavations during the 1980s and 1990s before the construction of a new shopping centre have brought several branches of the artificial inner-city section of the Gender to light, including a connection to the moat of , which stood just east of the city walls. 20th-century channelisation and the emergence of large-scale residential areas in the Gender basin have seen the last stretch before the city centre cut off. In order to regulate water levels of the Dommel and Gender streams, which occasionally threatened to flood Eindhoven's inner city area, a drainage canal (Afwateringskanaal) was dug in the late 1930s to connect the Dommel to the newly constructed Beatrix Canal and so dispose of excess water. Into this canal the Gender now discharges. A further downstream section of the Gender between the canal and the Engelsbergen pond remains, but receives little water of the original stream. Two districts of Eindhoven that are situated on its banks were named after the Gender stream: Genderdal ('Gender Dale') and Genderbeemd ('Gender Meadow'). (en)
- De Gender is een beek van circa vijftien kilometer lengte in de Nederlandse provincie Noord-Brabant. Ze ontspringt in de drassige weilanden nabij Steensel en stroomt langs Veldhoven en Meerveldhoven in noordoostelijke richting naar Eindhoven. In Veldhoven mondt de Poelenloop of Rijt vanuit het westen in de Gender uit. Na Veldhoven vloeit ook de Rundgraaf samen met de Gender. Deze beek begint bij Oerle en loopt langs de noordelijke wijken van Veldhoven. In Eindhoven stroomde de Gender oorspronkelijk naar en door het centrum om in de Dommel uit te monden, maar tegen het eind van de negentiende eeuw was het gedeelte binnen de (voormalige) stadsmuur gedempt en stroomde de Gender uit in De Vest (de stadsgracht), die op haar beurt weer verbonden was met de Dommel. In de twintigste eeuw is de benedenloop van de Gender drastisch veranderd. Met name de naoorlogse grootschalige aanleg van nieuwbouwwijken in het stroomgebied van de Gender heeft ertoe geleid dat de beek gekanaliseerd werd en dat ten slotte het laatste stuk richting de stad afgesneden werd, zodat ze nu uitmondt in het Afwateringskanaal Eindhoven, dat de Dommel met het Beatrixkanaal verbindt. De Gender is een van de vele beekjes die het water afvoeren van oostelijk Noord-Brabant en het Kempens Plateau. Soortgelijke beken zijn de Dommel, Kleine Dommel, Keersop, Tongelreep, Aa en Run. Al deze waterlopen komen vroeg of laat samen om uiteindelijk in 's-Hertogenbosch de Dieze te vormen, die ten slotte uitmondt in de Maas. (nl)
