Male, female, other, and leave blank / prefer not to disclose are all the options I would list. It's important to allow women and men who do not want to disclose their gender that option. It's also important to allow people who would like to list their gender as other to do so. Gender is an extremely tricky issue. Whatever you do, I recommend NOT listing "male to female" or anything of that sort. Transgendered people identify, from my understanding, as their adopted (actual) gender, not the one society would often assume them to have. I hope this helps.
- wunderfool 15y agothese pages aren't your "identity", hasn't years of facebook abuse taught people anything? these pages exist to tune an ad matching algorithm. hel-lo, this is what google does even better than facebook. your freedom to expand or contract your profile will be consistent with google's ad targeting agenda. people who want a free-form digital identity should get their own domain and move on. i know we're in a honeymoon here where google can do no wrong, but randall is just showing himself up here as a second rate thinker...the real answer to owning your identity is to not equate it with a database row
