Yes we keep asking—- please fix the blank sex choice space.

And I want a girl on HER profile avatar photo.

Do you mean you can not choose an option from the dropdown?
Michel, when I check the dropdown it only shows Male or Female. An Other category would be useful for intersex people, or even the ability to fill it in.
The official WikiTree position as described on the page Michael links seems to be that we can leave the Sex at Birth selection blank and check the "other/do not display" status. This may or may not address Jessica's point.

However, Cathy, it sounds as though you want to set the Sex at Birth on a particular profile to Female. This depends on what browser you are using. But on mine there is a big arrow just next to the field. If I click that, three selectable choices appear: blank, male, and female. Are you not seeing something like that?
There was no option. It did not respond to clicking the dropdown box or arrow or highlighted green words, “sex at birth”, but finally it worked after a wasted hour of trying.  So it was a technical glitch I suppose.

The item could not be answered, but after a while, I was able to get the two  choices of male & female to appear & click female, then the Profile was correct.  It was a glitch, not whether I understood.
