I'll be the first to admit, I've seen more than my fair share of people going all hipster-activism and creating their own, personal issues to promote, but I don't see any of that in this thread. I could say a lot about it, but I'll save it for another thread if anyone feels the need to start it.
As for facebook gender options, it's not really too much if you actually look at what they have. Honestly, it's mostly a lot of redundancy. I mean, they have "MTF," "trans woman," "trans female" "trans* female" and "trans person" all listed as potential options for gender and those can all pretty much describe the same person, just slightly different wording. There even seems to be gender neutral options in there, which is also cool.
