New options on Australian Census

The Australian Bureau of Statistics has updated and expanded the Sex Standard (government agencies have standards for everything) to acknowledge sex and gender as different variables, with an "other" option for both.

Looks like the upcoming 2016 Census will be the first chance for nonbinary Australians to record themselves as such!

There are some bits I'd nitpick, but overall, a big improvement.

There seem to be mixed messages coming out of Oz. So you got rid of that asshole PM and this news sounds like progress

New PM is more presentable, but not much of an improvement; he says progressive things but doesn't walk the walk.
