I noticed the gender addition yesterday, thanks so much!  It's working perfectly; I can now add children to people whose gender is unclear due to a neutral name, etc.  Really appreciate you guys adding feature requests!

This is working! Thank you so much. The new 'Other' gender button helps with my first cousin twice removed who is transgender and I was getting annoyed not being able ato add it.
