Facebook: Go Beyond the Gender Binary

The Issue

I am among the almost five million transgender- or genderqueer-identified people who use Facebook on a daily basis.  Unfortunately, we do not have a means of accurately representing who we are on the world's largest social networking site.  Facebook has been inclusive in the past with their addition of "domestic partnership" to the potential relationship statuses.  What we are asking is for this inclusiveness to be extended to us, the gender-nonconforming, so that we can be visible and accepted on a large scale.
