The logic you are trying to use it produce html as-
<select>
<option value="0">unknown</option>
<option value="1">male</option>
<option value="2">female</option>
</select>
So you should use in following way-
Configure::write('User.genders', array(''=>'unknown', '1'=>'male',
'2'=>'female'));
rest code is same
