Facebook allows users to customise gender
Facebook has announced that it will allow users to customise their gender, after consulting on the subject with gay and transgender advocacy groups.
The 50-odd options, which include "bi-gender", "transgender", "androgynous" and "transsexual", will allow people "to express themselves in an authentic way", Facebook said in a post.
Users can also choose whether to be referred to as "he", "she" or "they".
The new options will initially only be for those using the site in US English.
The new options were formulated after consultations with five leading gay and transgender rights' organisations, Facebook says.

androgynous(発音注意! [ændrάdʒənəs])は「雌雄両花のある」という意味から、「男女両性(の)」を表します。これは会話ではgender ambiguousともいうと先生から教えていただきました。bi-gender、transgender(TG)、transsexual(TS)とともに区別できるようにしたいと思います。(Shou-VR*)
