@ClipHead @bleeptrack i thought "diverse" was captured in the "x" but ok oh wait nvm is it about more diversity than "just gender"?

    @ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt @ClipHead@social.cologne @bleeptrack@vis.social diverse is essentially the made-up version of nonbinary that German politics came up with. Still better than nothing, I did actually put that as my new gender ​:neofox_floof:​

    @ShadowJonathan @bleeptrack I think it's for everyone not feeling like they belong in the other categories. But not sure... 🤔

    @ShadowJonathan @ClipHead @bleeptrack Those are essentially options for what's registered for you and written in your birth certificate. Since 1994, you have the option of _not_ having a gender marker in your documents, here represented by x. However, that option was commonly ignored, "x" in job descriptions is a new thing. The constitutional court later argued that inter* people don't have a marker to express themselves, so since 2019, inter* people may choose "divers" as an option.
