Gender Neutrality: Could Facebook Be Next?
By Michelle Garcia
http://www.advocate.com/News/Daily_News/2011/08/01/Gender_Neutrality_Could_Facebook_Be_Next/Now that Google+ has the option for users to remain gender-neutral, an activist organization is urging Facebook, the world's second most popular website to go the same route.
AllOut has a petition encouraging Facebook to accommodate transgender people and multiple gender identities.
AllOut.org/Facebook features the stories of several gender non-conforming people like Mikaela (pictured) who are also urging the social networking giant to change the provided gender identity options. Andre Banks of AllOut said in a statement Thursday that the change would not be a difficult one for Facebook's administrators to make.
