To keep picking on the funny webform that thinks Uttar Pradesh could be in the UK (or the US, or Japan...), here's another weird dropdown from the same form, this time for "Gender":
Uh, "Unknown"?Even transexual / transgender people identify with (or in the case of a hermaphrodite usually have no choice but to identify with) a particular gender.
If that's a trying-to-be-politically-correct attempt to cater for those who consider themselves to be of a third gender, at least use "Other" or "Neither" - much more PC than "Unknown", which just insults people's ability to know their own sexual identity.
And it's not exactly usable Web design is it? I dread to see what they've done with the rest of that form...
