Is normalizing the gender table going too far?

Question

I am not a database guy, but am trying to clean up another database. So my question is would normalizing the gender table be going too far?

User table:
userid in         


        

Answer 1

Well, your company might have a requirement that, if possible, everything be normalized.

Also, depending on the business & data, you might need to include transgenders as well which would create 3+ genders (I don't know how many there are, haven't checked)
