With all due respect, this is one of the worst ideas I've seen on this site. With all the discussion about how bad labels are, and -- most important -- that people should have the absolute, unequivocal right to self-identity of gender, putting an arbitrary number chosen by someone else into the equation seems, well, beyond disrespectful.
