Re: Gender-neutral family relationship descriptors
@kaichen04this is why I put @batmansxrobin 's suggestion from the other thread here. I can imagine it is probably easier to make the default terms gender-neutral and then gendered/alternative flavour can be customised/added back just like pronouns. This way nothing is erased.
In life, people of any gender identity are addressed as parents/siblings/children in various contexts with no offence made, but if you don't fit within the gender binary, being referred to as a 'son/daughter'/'brother/sister' etc could be discomforting.
I think an implementation similar to how pronouns work would be easier than, say, adding a non-binary gender alongside male and female in CAS.
