+283 Why does facebook have to say "Cousin (female)" and "Cousin (male)" on the family option? If somebody really stalked enough to go to your cousin's facebook page, I'm pretty sure they would be able to tell their gender, amirite?

Probably because in other languages, there are 2 different words for cousin, so it's that way in case someone else with a different language views their profile. :)

that makes much more sense. damn, i seem so ignorant on so many of my posts... i'm really not. i think. i actually took spanish until 6th grade, and french up until now. i don't know why i didn't think of that.

Well, you're still right! :D I mean, they should be able to tell if they're a boy or girl by looking at the profile, but I meant just in the case that the profile's private or something.~ ^^

My cousin listed me as his male cousin and I'm a girl... I don't think he's noticed.

because you are relative from the father not the mother.. i guess !

I don't know if this is changed, but when I pick someone's name, if they are female, I can only get female options, so maybe your Facebook profile is set to male?

i cant find the option cousin female

Same problem here. No option for female of any kind. My cousin is female and her profile says so. I thought maybe she had made a mistake in her profile but that is not the problem.
