Names (personal, company) / vocabulaire
English term or phrase: Gender
C'est pour créer un site internet de vente par correspondance.

On demande le nom, le prénom, l'adresse, etc...

Et - gender -

Je vois bien de quoi il s'agit, mais si je dis "sexe", ça paraît bizarre, non ? Avez-vous d'autres idées ? Merci d'avance.
