I'm bored with the whole issue. I'm traditional, so I only recognise that gender is assigned at birth. Everything else is diversity of sexual activity. I love the diversity and I support people's choice in it, but it shouldn't affect gender in my opinion. My belief is that the whole gender issue is another creation of the elites to reduce population growth. Bill Gates has stated that this is one of the functions of the current pseudo-vaccine injections. I'm ambivalent about including gender in a Bitcoin Talk profile. My preference would be for a ternary option - male, female and prefer not to say. The gender at birth should be the basis for the entry.
I accept and respect the opinion, but you must be missing my point. I don't care what anyone believes. My thread is created in the Meta board, specifically because it addresses the fact that I don't think the gender is relevant with the forum by any means. The basis of my question isn't to start a converstion regarding whether there a 1,2,...X genders, it's just to point out that it has nothing to do with the forum.
So, I understand that your opinion is to put a "prefer not to say" in the dropdown. That's an option as well.
