What is the most inclusive way to ask gender?

Be as inclusive as possible.

The most inclusive way to ask about sex, gender, or sexuality is to leave a blank option where participants can list their identities in their own words.

How do you ask gender on an inclusive form?

This can be easily done by adding a question asking people to select the pronouns that they use on your form(s) from a list of common pronouns and/or offering an open-ended field where people can fill in which pronouns they use. In some cases, this question may even replace a question about gender.

What is the correct way to ask someones gender?

If you're asking someone “do you identify as a man or a woman” so that you can know how to refer to them (i.e. their pronouns) is better to ask, “what are your pronouns?” That's the information you actually want to know (and often need to know) — so ask that instead.
