Thread: Using enumerations in classes

In another thread it was suggested to use an enum for gender in Human class.

Is this how you would implement the idea:

Code:

#include <iostream>

class Human
{
    public:
        enum gender {male, female}; //public, so they would be accessible in main()
        Human(gender g): m_gender(g) {}
        ~Human() {};
        gender getGender() //or should it return int?
        {
            return m_gender;
        }
    private:
        gender m_gender; actual gender, therefore private
};

int main()
{
    Human man(Human::male); //is this right?
    Human woman(Human::female);
    std::cout << man.getGender() << " " << woman.getGender() <<
    std::endl;
    std::cin.get();
}
