It doesn't matter what you and I think. People should be free to do whatever they want in their profile.

Are they not already free to add or not add gender to their bio?

I think that is really the point people have been making.

Personally I don't actually care but I lean in the direction of it being unnecessary.

Implying that somehow this adds freedom to people on their profile is sketchy. They were already completely free to do so before.

Adding a new field for gender and thinking it adds anything when there is already a completely freeform bio field to use for all that?

Total honesty this just reeks of #wokeism and more dividing and categorizing.

It's really no bid deal. The profile on Nostr is already for them to add as many fields as they want. Many clients have this option to allow users to express themselves as fields. The one on amethyst is literally just 10 or so lines of code. It took me less than 5 mins to add. it's not really any burden.

To me it is way more important that users can express themselves in anyway they, and only they, see fit.

look i updated my display name with my pronouns so it displays the exact same way if i use the pronoun field. this is already completely interoperable in nostr across clients.

Feel free to do that.
