Re: T/Q/I category

The one file that is in in there is Trans-Gendered...  That explains the T possibly...

Re: T/Q/I category

Yes that's right, we have decided to add a category for other genders.  Contributors choose, when they submit, the gender they identify as.  This is something we should have done long ago.  We won't be able to contact all the contributors to see who would like to be moved to this category so it'll look a bit lonely in there for a while!

It's always nice to have a new category! To be honest, I already have a few people in mind who might prefer to be moved into this category; maybe you can start with those it might make classifying things a little easier too!

Can you give us a list, Gideontan?  We'll see if we can contact them.

A quick search on "gender" in the forum brings up a few examples. 3510, 1874, 914, 1612 are some that have been mentioned before, but I'm sure there's others

Re: T/Q/I category

An issue I see here is that "trans" doesn't make sense as a category. If someone has transitioned to male or female, there are already categories for those. Some trans people are genderqueer or nonbinary and so on, but the category mentions them already.
