gender: Why does vCard Ontology define class hierarchy instead of skos:Concept resources ? from Andreas Kuckartz on 2014-06-04 (semantic-web@w3.org from June 2014)

The vCard Ontology uses a class hierarchy to formulate gender values
(vcard:Female, vcard:Male, vcard:None, vcard:Other and vcard:Unknown as
subclasses of vcard:Gender).

That is unusual and not really usable.

Why is no skos:ConceptScheme with skos:Concept resources used for that
purpose?

Cheers,
Andreas
