I would use the gender attribute instead of creating a new entity in my
model… But it depends on your model design

Appreciate this is a path well travelled probably.
What’s the best way of to deal with gender.
i.e. a Person is either Male or Female (generally and fot my purposes
I’ll stick with that rule).
So is it best to go Person with an attribute gender, or, I guess it’s
best to do something like this - the rails way?
Person
belongs_to: gender
Gender
has_many: people
Sorry if this is such an obvious question just want to do it right.
