      The valueset applied to the property is from the administrativeGender and the description of the property also highlights that this is only administrative.

      From the context of a person, there is no requirement for clinical gender representations, as where a person is a patient, the patient is the context that applies into the clinical space.

      Comment:

      gender should be renamed to administrative gender to distinguish it from a possible meaning of biological gender which for more in depth clinical uses could be a much greater set of potential value.This is done for other HL7 specifications
