I don't think that there is a need for any more genders because it would make the entire site confusing.
I still remember the good old days when the world was limited to male and female. Later, when those people that felt they needed to assign a letter to their sexual orientation were satisfied with the letters L, G and B. Somehow, with every year that passes, another letter, number or sign is added to the original LGB community. How can anyone keep track of that gibberish of letters and numbers.
It seems to be very fashionable nowadays to claim to be from a newly discovered sexual orientation that none of our ancestors seemed to be aware of. What will follow in
30+ years when all the letters and numbers of the current alphabet have been used?Will the future generations be confronted with something like LGBTQIA+6JUE0/OZDV-X9SYK8*P47M, WF/5R2H3C1N? And then what?
Youth nowadays already have a hard time with expressing themselves and the correct use of the English grammar. At this rate, we are in for serious trouble.
Why not just say that one is a human being rather than to assign each individual a different letter, number or any other brand for their individual sexuality. I have serious doubts that all the languages in the world have unduplicated letters for the current 8+ billion humans. Each one seems to have a slight difference that requires the addition
of a mark of some kind.

Actually no. First this app is specified to be between two genders and that can be ok. A lot of transpeople can already just choose whatever they are. And non binary dont fit into the concept to be honest. There are alternatives, where they are included. I am all for inclusion but forced inclusion where is doesn't fit just ruins the purpose.
Second and last this side is full of haters and transphobes. It may be better if they stay far for their own good.
As someone who supports the notion of gender as a social construct, if we were to assume your loose logic has any merit, then it's evident that you, too, are a scared snowflake. Because nobody is "terrified" of inclusivity. Many people are opposed to the validation of certain notions, and subsequently oppose what you deem as inclusivity, but they're not scared of it. And the fact you're attempting to misrepresent their position instead of just being a rationale person and representing their stance honestly and truthfuly, then if we were to apply the same standards as the logic you've presented, it would be pretty clear that you're scared of opposition and can't handle when people disagree with you.
I'm nonbinary, but I don't really have an issue with the site being binary, pink and blue. Everyone has their own take, but I would think transfem/masc would just go pink or blue as they identify, so I don't see that as an issue. There are also plenty of users on gag who create accounts opposite the gender they identify as for various motivations. That's also fine with me, even those with malicious intent are pretty much harmless if you aren't completely naive.
I'm not going to ask for a "purple" option, as my particular non-binary-ness doesn't see my gender as an issue, or even really a label that I need to slap on myself for everyone to publicly view. I'm a human, and it's fine.

The app is literally called girls ask guys so if you don’t find yourself identifying as either or, maybe this app isn’t mean for you. You cannot force people, brands, sides, or whatever have you to be inclusive just because it doesn’t sit with your views.
My suggestion is instead of calling people snowflakes AFTER asking their opinion, channel that energy. Get in contact with the right people and create a community app for those who identify as being in the LBGTQ+ community.I think it might be fine. But honestly on here you can put in your profile for that type of stuff if you want. Nothing on the site says you cannot do that. Putting gender identity and pronouns in a profile is easier than waiting for the site to do anything.
Nobody is scared of inclusivity. But how are you after 60 million years of evolution suddenly demanding different words to describe your gender. If you have a dixk you’re a man or trans woman. There is no they them there like wtf are you talking about lol
No, this sitte/app is called girls ask guys. Feel free to start a trans ask non-binary site if you want.
The title of this ''App'' says otherwise.
What you suggest is similar to establishing a meat lovers section on a vegan website :)
Let everyone be the way he/she/it/whatever wants to be. At their own place, though?
No.
It should include options for Apache attack helicopters like me and dolphins like you.
I have no opinion because I don't even know what the hell that is. But there are a lot of imaginary rainbow and unicorn poop mental issues out there and you can't expect a website to accommodate it all.
No. Don't need to give a spotlight to folks who are just different.
if they feel trigerred because they can’t choose between boy or girl than they can ask and answer anonimuously
Absolutely not. What happens next week when those people cease to exist?
There are too many bigots and, like you said, “snowflakes” for that idea to ever work on here.
Fuck those labels and fuck the people that are so attention seeking that they need those labels to fill a void.
Well it is called Girls Ask Guys so probably not.
Just think of them as male or female instead of man or woman if you think they aren't synonymous.
No because those people aren't real, a person is either male or female or a mix of both (hermaphrodite), there is no such thing as "non binary" or "trans", those are just males and females with mental illnesses.
Not really. If you think there is a need, start your own website.
BOLLOX TO THAT IDEA.
Nope sounds like a mental health issue
