Delete My Gender Please

2 replies

Barracker · 12/10/2018 16:25

Dear @MNHQ. I do not have any gender, because as I'm sure you know, I don't believe in gender as a characteristic that people 'have', only as a stereotypical role people of a sex are expected to perform.

Therefore, as you currently hold some 'gender' data on me that states:
Barracker, Gender = Female
AND as that data is both false and I do not consent for you to hold it, please delete that specific piece of data from my personal information at your earliest convenience.

Thank you.

(If you would care to capture data on my biological sex, I would be delighted to offer you that data. Do let me know as soon as you create a field to capture my sex data. This should also assist you if you intend to monitor or analyse data on the Equality Act 2010 regarding the protected characteristic sex.)

Warmest regards

Barracker x

Hi all and thanks for your comments. We're going to simplify this to the following, which we hope will work for everyone:

Are you: male/female/unspecified

This should show up in your My Mumsnet page, as well as the 'join Mumsnet' process, later this week.

Thanks everyone,

MNHQ

Hi all - just to say that all the data entered on your "About You" page is optional -- none of it is required on registration. If you click "edit" you can change or delete information you've previously supplied. We don't edit the data that you supply, but if you need help with the page, do drop a line to [email protected].
