Forum URL: leafcult.freeforums.nethey im attempting to set this up, but i can't get around the fact that all registration requires a gender, and the only two available are male/female.... is there a way to disable this? it' a little antiquated & offensive....

I agree.. It's just as bad as the US Census asking about your race with so few choices and not a clue about why they still do it..

Hi, This is a question that has come up a few times in the past (the link is the most recent example). The simple and straightforward answer is that the advertisers that allow us to provide forums for free to users require a gender so that the advertising can be more directly targeted. While most of us realize that gendered advertising is silly, unfortunately marketing and advertising departments don't see it that way. We simply ask that users pick whichever option they like, as it effects nothing but the types of advertisements you may see. After joining the forum you can create a custom field on the forum to display any gender you wish, or none at all.
