Sometimes I wonder what the gender field is even for anymore. In this case, it’s clearly there just so you can select that option.
As an aside, a website I used to use decades ago had a relatively harmless vulnerability in its “sex” field in the profile editor, allowing you to submit any value you want, and the website would render what you submitted. The field was also specifically called “sex”, not “gender”. You can imagine what values people put there.
Of course my sex is
<script>(function(){while(true){alert(":3")}})();</script>.Ah, transfem I see :3
it uses
textContentinstead ofinnerHTMLtho
Mfs putting “yes please” and doing a dad laugh
Austin Powers had that joke…
He stole it from me
This one looks like an effort to flip off conservatives without them noticing.
reminds me of a time a friend of mine couldn’t sign up for a music site without selecting male/female and I fixed it using a similar vulnerability
Male
Female
Consumer of our commodity
The 3 genders
Shoulda just set it at 2.
- Ice cream lover
- Godless heathen
Seriously though, there’s no need for this on most sites, forms etc. We wish they’d just do away with such things altogether.
It’s only there because their ads want it and companies they sell your data to want it so they know what forced preferences society has told you to have and they can target you with those.
Lol, they cannot get my preferences from my sex, gender or any meaningless pieces of information.
All they care about is the statistics of which groups are going to be more likely to buy their product. They’re going to sell a lot more facial hair products advertising to people identify as male than if they spent the same amount of money to advertise to anyone with a less targeted ad.
Not your preferences personally, but the preferences they think you have based on those categories because there are a lot of preferences that society says people of those genders are supposed to prefer. It’s used in almost all advertising categorization because the majority of people give in to conforming to those preferences in order to fit in. Most men don’t wear lacy pink and purple or they get called sissies or whatever, so they don’t advertise lacy lingerie to people categorized as men for example. Otherwise they’re wasting their ads. But LGBTQ+ people aren’t really considered in these things because most ad companies are too conservative and even admitting LGBTQ+ people even exist is hard to get people like that to do.
As an enby I approve :3
But do you love ice cream?
Yep :3. I eat a lot of that stuff. I mean… I usually buy it in 5 liter tubs lol
Corporate inclusion done right, how hard is that, Target? Just call your enby customers Targ… Wait, no.
Huh, while I am a man, I’m an ice cream lover first and foremost
