Why hasn't Southwest offered a non-binary option in the gender drop-down menu yet? I read that in February, Southwest indicated it would do so.
Solved! Go to Solution.

According to This Article Southwest said they will eventually add non binary gender markers but they don't have a set time frame as of that articles writing.
I would reach out to southwest directly to see if they have any updates since this article was back in February but I haven't heard any updates recently.

Thanks for finding the article @bec102896
The quote from Southwest is pretty clear, no timeframe and in Southwest IT land that could mean years.
"that while we don’t have a timeframe to share, Southwest is currently investigating solutions and the technical requirements needed to provide our Customers non-binary gender marker options during the booking process."

I'm not really sure why gender specification is relevant to an airline, but, here we are. Have other companies adopted a non-binary option? Most profiles that I fill out on web sites still say male/female only in my experience.
