  14                         This property, somewhat awkwardly, is treated as an open‐ended enumeration of plain string values, of which two are clearly defined: <value datatype="xsd:string">male</value> and <value datatype="xsd:string">female</value>.
  15                         <ptr target="(FOAF)"/> remarks that this property “is not intended to capture the full variety of biological, social, and sexual concepts associated with the word ‘gender’” but fails to identify what it <em>is</em> meant to capture.
  16                         Presumably, its utility depends on context.
