Why do smart cards have a 'sex' option?

[Grant Olson]

I just got my new crypto-stick, and it's pretty slick.  I understand why
I'd want to set my name and language preferences, but I was trying to
come up with a good scenario where my sex would be useful, or what the
rational was for including that field.

I'm just curious more than anything.
