dA removes 'unspecified' gender option

[chicobo329]

Around the same time of Spirit Day I might add. The main post that people are passing around is this from Dreamwidth. The best part is that DA senior members and staff take a way too binary and literal approach even in the face of such constant criticism coming from its members

What. The. Fuck. Is the first week of November Bullshit Week or something? Everywhere I turn lately, I run into someone else who's a bigoted asshole. What bloody hypocrites you are, DA, to insult GROUPS OF PEOPLE THAT FUCKING EXIST on Spirit Day. ghdskjghfskjghrjfkjdhkfjd

It's as if all the political ads have made people into raging dickwads. I've really been wishing for a "punch someone in face over Internet" button this week.

I heartily agree with this statement.

Believe me, I could use one myself right now. I left a journal post on my DA detailing this bullshit. I'm not coming back until they bring back the Unspecified option and give the transgendered community a great big apology.

I heard of this over at deviart, too. *sighs irritably* What're they playing at?
