How should people who identify as transgender, non-binary, or two-spirit answer the ‘sex’ question on the form?

The answer choices for the ‘sex’ question remain limited to ‘male’ and ‘female.’ People can choose the option that best represents how they self-identify. Those who would do not feel that either of these two categories properly or accurately represents how they self-identify might choose to skip this question (despite the conflicting requirement that respondents answer all questions).
