To administration.
The wish is simple: to have a feature sex in profile. (male, female, or “do not know” if someone want :-).
Because some times it is a bit confusing. For example, my sex is male but I want Amy’s picture as avatar. And often it’s hard to determine somebody’s sex by what he (or she) write in his (her) posts.
So what do you think of this?

I wonder if this was created because of HJS.

I don't think that 's sucha bad idea.  I've seen it in the profiles of other forums.

Adding fields to the profiles is a bit risky and stuff, but I guess I will look into it over the day. Other fields than AIM/Sex? I don't want to overload the thread display, so I'd probably add it to the profile view only

Hmm, I'm not sure about the AIM field. You see, I don't use it, therefore I don't like it...

I used to think Marc was female. Luckily this new option will spare me from feeling that embarassment again.    :o

I say yes, it's a good idea. I saw this in
<------the block on a Operation Flashpoint forum -just a symbol for male of female.
But it being Operation Flashpoint, there weren't a huge number of women wondering about anyway   ;)...

/edit] Oh I see you've already done this (this post took a while to write - I got interupted by a Virus thingy halfway through)
Thanks [-marc-]!  :)

^^Uh, yeah, what with his name and all   :p.

Anywho I voted yes, although it's already decided. I think it would be a good idea to have a tiny icon under our avatars, or even where ICQ is supposed to be. ICQ could go into the profile. I dunno, just a thought.
Little icons like this wouldnt be too intrusive (these are from a msg board my sister visits, probably not best to use these)

Ok .. added it to the registration process now, too. Default is "unknown", so it's not privacy invading. I already had icons for the sex, will test some where to put them:
male
female
unknown

Hehe, this is turning into a game of spot the symbol. Of the two Ive seen I prefer it top right hand corner as oppose to just in front of the rank.

Hmm, the "unknown" symbol looks demented. I think it would be better if the unknown option showed no symbol at all.

It should at least be given it's own category under 'transvestite' or 'hermaphrodite'...  :p

Sounds as it was better to tell others which gender you have... *thinks* perhaps I should say I'm male.. *shudders*

Wow I swore that one of the big things about the internet was the fact you can lie about your gender...

Oh well I like it my name is a feminine Latin noun, sometimes people think I am female and Muscus domesticus looks strange and isn’t the scientific name.
