hi jsundquist,... 
in fact I'm getting an 2 empty spots on top with no options empty,... what 
if the new user who's trying to signup accidentally deselect it ? ,... and 
there we need the red wrapping warning with message,...  'message' => 
'Gender must be valid',... anyway,... for now I'm validating from a 
controller but will be nice to do it from Model,... 

    elseif(empty($this->data['User']['gender']))
    {
          $this->flash('error', ucfirst(i18n::translate('you must enter 
valid Gender')));
              $this->redirect($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
    }

thanks man,...
