Are there plans to offer more options to the Gender field other than male and female?

That would be great! We've been using a custom field in the meantime.

Amy - What do you have in the custom field?

Hello! This is something that the Product Team is actively researching at this time. We don't have any real updates to share at this time, but it's definitely something that we're looking to update since it's currently a very binary field within the software.

@Amy - At this point we only have 4 categories: a) I prefer not to answer, b) Man, c) Woman, d) Non-binary or Gender Expansive. And then we have a note saying, "Woman includes cisgender and transgender women and man includes cisgender and transgender men."

We have quite a few fields in the personal information section of the profile (using custom fields) including things like race, primary language, education as well, so it seems to work well within that section. The fields such as race/ethnicity and gender we have labeled as "not visible in profile" so it is only visible to the member and to us. It is a required category, because we wanted to people to select "prefer not to answer" versus skipping over it accidentally.

I would love if we could have people opt in for pronouns to be listed after their name when they post in the community
