The fight for non-binary rights is not over!

Our way of life is under attack!

Even on this Yacht Club Cruise Registration form, we are oppressed. Non-binaries - fight for your rights!



(Spoiler: for those who don't get it: Power vs. sail are radio buttons, which are an either/or choice. Checkboxes are multiple choice.)

Couldn't imagine what you were up to with that topic title...

Almost relieved when I read your post.

I'm dense; I don't have a clue as to what you are saying about radio buttons I'll just go along with Jimmy's approval of the thread.

You're living on the edge with that approach, Ray!

Radio buttons are webpage controls that allow you to select exactly one from a list of options. When there are two options available, you can must choose only one of them; you cannot choose both.

The underlying assumption (microaggression) in such a design is that boats are either power or sail, and that both is nonsensical.

Well, now I've learned something.

The radio button was first introduced as an Internet standard in 1995 in RFC 1866. It gets its name from the radio buttons that (most) of us remember in cars where you could press a button that had been set to one of your favorite stations. If the radio was on another station at the time it would pop up the previously selected station when the new one was pressed since it made no sense to select more than one station simultaneously. It was a totally mechanical solution and physically moved the tuner when the button was pressed.

Thanks Bill. I knew what they were, but not why. Makes sense. Learn something new every day, even at 72.
