I think there should be a box in your profile where you can type in what your gender is. That would ease confusion and misgendering, and the awkwardness of asking "so what's your gender" for people like me who have social anxiety.

EDIT: It would not be mandatory!



This suggestion has 55 supports and 7 NO supports.

No support

We don't need something in our den that shows personal information it doesn't make any sense at all

Although I'm not fully against it, I do not support either. I sort of like confusing people, so if this were an option, it would not be required and could be left unspecified.

I might support this if there was like... an optional info bit you could fill out for your profile, not just gender that randomly floats around somewhere on your page. :P

I don't quite understand the purpose of this. No support.

I support in theory but in practice I don't think people really read profiles that often. At least, not beyond the main lion's stats/den members and so on. I don't think a gender option, while nice, would work to effectively stop people misgendering others.

I'm not sure. What would stop two people having a conversation from asking each other? It shouldn't be embarrassing, because there would literally be no reason for you to know anything about that person, name age gender, anything.. so what's the harm in asking? However, I understand how it could be hard if you have anxieties, also. The one issue I could see with it is there are a lot of people who are genderfluid or don't identify with either. So, having only the two options of 'male' or 'female' would be limiting. I suppose as long as it isn't mandatory, it would be alright.

Support, for genderfluid, genderqueer and agender people this would make a great option.
A pronouns box would also be cool, but that's another thing all together.

I support. From what I've noticed, some people are very 'touchy' about the gender subject, and get upset if it's gotten wrong. I've never checked dens before, because it's commonly known that most don't HAVE their gender up there. I feel like this would prompt me (and possibly others) to check more often, to avoid upsetting players.

If it's not mandatory I don't see a good reason not to...?

Only support if there are more than "male" and "female" options. I'm Genderfluid, and like Toli said, this could be a great option if more than two genders are listed. :)

Support, but only if there are options for those who aren't a specific gender.

There would be options for those who aren't a specific gender. It would just be a text box where you can type your gender.
