Why not, "Why even ask for sex/gender?"

If they don't have to verify your identity in real life and the site isn't about hookups or medical advice or anything where it matters, why do sites still ask for it?

I'd agree that Male/Female/Other should be a bare minimum though, and there should be the ability to change it afterward... Realistically, this isn't a life-vital site, and people can just create a new account. So the admins probably don't care.
