Gender identity article
Hello, GideonMarkCabanban. I'm confused about this addition you added to the Gender identity article, which is why I tweaked it. Like I stated in my first edit summary concerning your edit, your source seems to be confusing sexual orientation/sexual identity with gender identity, even though the WP:HATNOTE at the top of the article states "Not to be confused with Sexual orientation or Sexual identity." Your text, in addition to including "male" and "female," which is redundant because that aspect is already mentioned in the lead (intro), includes "homosexual," "lesbian," "bisexual." But the latter portion (those three terms) is not how gender identity is usually defined; it's usually defined by a person's gender (boy or girl, man or woman) and/or their sex...meaning sex categories...(male or female), not by the sexual categories you listed. Does the source include sexual categories as being a part of defining gender identity, or is the addition of that your interpretation? Also, per WP:LEAD and WP:UNDUE (your addition not having been covered lower in the article first, and not being the usual way that gender identity is defined), I moved your addition down (out of the lead).

If you reply to me, do not forget to sign your user name beside your reply. To sign your user name, all you have to do is simply type four tildes (~), like this:. I would prefer that you reply here on your talk page instead of on mine. Flyer22 (talk) 21:02, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
