It's a simplification and exadurstion for comic effect, and to get a phrase that works for both meanings.

When is visibility good, and when is it bad?
There's no one size fits all situated. I'm pretty visible, mostly by choice. But no-one else has to be if they don't want to.

1) This has nothing to do with mapping.
2) Why does the government need to record "gender" (or sex) at all?
