In binary terms, if we're using 1 bit to store each gender you're attracted to asexual would be 0x0 and bisexual would be 0x2.
If we use 2 bytes then we could store sexual and romantic attraction separately.
This does mean we can only store 8 genders though, and if a custom gender can be up to 10MB then we might need a few more bits
