MENLO PARK, Calif., Feb. 13 (UPI) -- Facebook provides more gender identity options like "transgender," "agender" and "intersex" after consultations with LGBT groups to enable users to "express their authentic identity."
The new options will also allow users to choose the pronoun that will be used for them on the social network. The changes, which were announced today and appear to be effective immediately, let the user choose between "her," "him" and "them," which will be used when Facebook sends a user's friends updates and notifications about the user.
