7 Tips for a More Gender-Neutral Design
Are your designs as inclusive as they could be? Do they appeal to all people of all genders equally?
While design theory can put a lot of emphasis on creating personas for better user experience and design journeys, they can sometimes not be as inclusive as you might like. Do you get so involved in the persona that you forget every other type of user that might visit your website?
