Morning folks,
Following on from last week’s thread about our asking you to sign up to Mumsnet as male or female, here’s where we’ve landed.
We’ve had a careful read of the thread, and done some more general reading around and investigation into how this is handled elsewhere, and we think the best way to proceed is to add the option “other” to the list of responses to the question of gender. Viz
Female
Male
Other (please specify) _
This is how lots of other sites navigate this, so we hope it’s not too controversial.
As ever when it comes to questions around gender, we’re aware that not everyone will agree, but this seems to us to be the most inclusive and sensible route to take.
Do let us know what you think.
