So, which one are you?

Male

.

But, I know several trans individuals who are appreciating this very much, no doubt...

I'm not sure it works quite like that...it just allows you to specify if you're trans, and updates the pronoun in your birthday message to:

him/her/them a happy birthday.

Edit: I just fiddled around and took a few pictures with the menus opened, you can see the options here, and notice that if your selection is other than male/female, facebook now allows you to control the privacy setting for your gender.

That means to avoid a potentially awkward situation

I'm a male here, but glad the choices have been updated for those who need them.

It means your gender identity matches your birth gender.

Honestly, I'm all for this Facebook update. Freedom of expression and all...

By these "standards", there is NO "Happy Birthday"................

It is now.........Gratified Neutral Gender Identification Observance
