<p>Has anyone else seen this on the Tufts supplement? Do you think that they are looking for something creative....or are they being serious (medical condition)?</p>
<p>they have this on the conn college common app too</p>
<p>so…what do you think?</p>
<p>My bet would be serious. They are most likely being sensitive to people who don’t identify according to the gender binary.</p>
<p>I agree with McPucks. </p>
<p>I don’t think it’s a ‘medical condition’ to be unable to identify with male or female. I’m sure there is a population out there who would find a 3rd option to be a sensitive and inclusive gesture.</p>
