@daisy One thing that annoys me is the request on a form for "gender" when one's gender is irrelevant. Like, for example, an airline ticket, or banking. And the drop-down menu might have "Male, Female, Neither" with no options for all the other genders on the spectrum. I've never seem a form that contains, for example, "genderfluid" as an option. I'm also doubtful about the business of collecting gender information for demographic purposes. The world being what it is, many trans people would rather simply keep to themselves, live their own lives, and not be bothered.

@DensityPoint @daisy Crazy, in this day and age. People change their names for all sorts of reasons, it shouldn't ever be difficult. And of course names contain all sorts of symbols, accented letters etc. We don't live in a 7-bit ASCII world! My own last name is Scottish so uses camel case: McA... and I'm always amazed at how many sites can't handle the capitalized A. Also, without being personal, or prying, good on you!
