To be extra explicit for the following reason:

'Gender' can be defined as the way society perceives your gender to be (often in a binary format). Whereas 'gender identity' may be referred to as your own sense of self/identity. As they can certainly both form the basis of harassment, I felt I should correct my mistake and put 'gender' back in much like the Contributor Covenant does.

Happy to discuss, and apologies for my original mistake.

Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @nikomatsakis (or someone else) soon.

If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes.

Please see the contribution instructions for more information.

Thanks for the contribution! We'll plan to talk about this change, and CoC changes in general, at the next core team meeting on Wednesday. See my other comment for a bit more detail.

I just opened a PR which synchronizes our list of personal characteristics with the one found in the contributor's convenant. This includes the change proposed here, along with a few other things. Therefore, I'm going to close this PR in favor of #288. Thanks @Charlotteis.
