However, we are open to the option of not including "male" or "female", if that's the better alternative. | |
Feb 10, 2017 at 16:32 | comment | added | Alvaro | What I mean is, why use gender for this classification? You could use other methods to classify (which include 5 selections as you say), and still give the user the option to enter gender. | |

Feb 10, 2017 at 16:27 | comment | added | Alvaro | "it's not important that we have the 'real' gender of the user, but we would like to still classify them." why are you using gender to classify them? | |
