All Implemented Interfaces:

public enum Gender
extends Enum<Gender>
implements IValueObject

Gender/Sex. This is my own derivation of the following website: https://at.wikimannia.org/60_Geschlechtsidentit%C3%A4ten From my point of view trans-gender is not a gender - it is a change of the gender over time. For example when someone is born as male he will become a female after a transformation. During the transformation BOTH or VARIABLE might be used. This will be handled in the Person class by a history of the gender.
