  gender-male ; gender-female

  Gender icon as checkbox label on a form

nb : Should I create one issue for each male, female ?

It would also be a good idea to include transgender gender symbols 👍 @colebemis

[Swizz]

Yeah, but there is a lot of genders too.
The font awesome example

In my app, I thinked about the use of : as other gender icon. But this one is in fact know as genderless.

[kurisubrooks]

If @colebemis provided guidelines so we could make our own icons Feather icons to submit to the pack, i'd certainly give making all of those a shot 👍

[HarrisJT]

Perhaps combining both the male and female so the circle stays in place but has two stems?

[kurisubrooks]

I think it'd also be nice if we included all the symbols for sexual orientations as well. Just to be inclusive. I know i'd appreciate them at least. Going off the chart by what Font Awesome has.

One issue - fourteen icons.

[Swizz]

Awkward

[kurisubrooks]

I mean, if you'd like me to I can make some 14 issues... But I have a feeling that would be more of an annoyance to all of us than a benefit

[Swizz]

In 2017, gender is a painful subject

[kurisubrooks]

The topic can get quite messy, but I still think it best to be inclusive of everyone. Even though this is just a simple icon pack... No need for politics here, just humanity.

[kurisubrooks]

Coming along slowly. Still more to go 👍

[Swizz]

Are starting from the icon cirle ?

[kurisubrooks]

They were based on that, but it doesn't seem possible to have them all perfectly aligned without there being massive whitespace, and the icons would be too small.

[ZER01D]

Hmm.. looks like this icon request is dead.

Are we going to get an update for this?
