Orthogonal means uncorrelated. Sex and gender are in reality highly, though not perfectly, correlated.

Concur. What’s a better word/phrase?

I’d say “not coextensive.” Unfortunately no single word that means exactly that.

I would say 'orthogonal' is used for conceptually independent, not causally independent nor statistically independent (uncorrelated). So i would say that sex and gender are conceptually independent, although in reality statistically highly correlated.

I think the word you're looking for is "distinct."
