 | Hello. Last night I met a strange creature on the bus. I'm 99% sure it was human, but I was unable to see if it was man
 or woman. This made me wonder. If you see a person like this
 commit a crime, how can you describe it in a non-racual and
 not sexist way? Like if you see a black man do something
 criminal you cannot tell the police it was a negroman, you
 instead say it was a man of african origin. If you see a
 mentally disabeled do crime, you don't tell police it was a
 mongoman, instead you say it was a man of retardic origin.
 But what if the person on the bus did something? What would
 be correct? Man-woman, woman-man? A person of LaToya Jackson
 origin? I don't think metrosexual will be right in this
 case. Please discuss and help me.

 | Yeah, I had a taxi driver like that before. It reminded me of "Bab's Cabs" from the League of Gentlemen and I kept
 tittering throughout the journey.

 i remember one year at school, i couldn't tell whether one

 to find out that she was a she.

 | But you have to give accurate description! "Mr police, a person did it!"
 
 It's not good enough!

 | The police actually have 5 (it might be 7, I can't remember) possible choices for "gender" in records. Lord knows what
 they all are...

 | Yes that's right, there are 5 main types of gender used in police reports.
 They are:
 Male
 Female
 Male to female transsexual
 Female to male transsexual
 Hermaphrodite
