I work in advertising (thus my screen name). Part of my job is writing and fielding surveys.
The gender question used to be the easiest one to write:
Gender?
__ Male
__ Female
Then I saw this in a recent survey and learned this verbiage is now considered "best practice" in surveys:
To which gender identity do you most identify?
__ Male
__ Female
__ Transgender Female
__ Transgender Male
__ Gender variant/non-conforming
__ Not listed; (please specify)
__ Prefer not to answer
