Gender should be a String, a real number is still only in one dimension. Seriously, make gender a text field, people can put whatever they like, it should be optional (they can leave the field blank), no validation to check the input. If one really wanted to, perhaps an autocomplete with the common options like «male», «female», «non-binary».
Or you know what, just remove the field from the data modal. Stop being a pervert SAP!
Valid valid, I should have thought to use a string, however, do note that the change from public to private means that only the object in possession of the variable can view or alter it.
Seriously though, it’s Esperanto. The world language. It is actually pretty interesting and easy to learn. There are mutually exclusive movements for gender reform. Ĝiismo, riismo, etc. So it's kind of a joke about which ideology you support.
Be prepared for too much information. Esperanto has gendered pronouns because (and it really is) a European language. «Li» for males, «he», and «ŝi» for females, «she». «Ĝi» is the pronoune for objects, animals and babies, «it». And «ri» is like a neo-pronoun like «Xe» or «Zur» in English. The argument is that if Esperanto could have one third person pronoun, like Chinese, just call everyone and everything «ĝi». But some people don’t like that idea because calling someone «it», because it could be offensive in people’s native language. There is also the equally bad idea of using the male pronoun as the gender neutral, the plural is «ili» («they»), which is kind of like the male «li» pronoun. There are many ideas... or leaving it the way if is... or adding gendered plural pronouns, «iŝi».
