Somewhat more controversially there was a recent attempt at “improving” gender input fields.

What bugs me is: why in the fuck are they asking for people’s gender? Other than medical questions (where you specify your birth gender), I think for the vast majority of cases the question should not be relevant.

Yeah pretty much, medical and dating information maybe. Anything else is just an invasion of privacy.

My amusement comes from the fact that in most cases a gender input field is just an invasion of privacy, juxtaposed against these ridiculous over implementations. My favourite is the gender fluid one.
