Hello @Nour_ha, welcome to the MongoDB Community forum!

Since,

Gender: { type: String,
          enum: "homme"||"Femme" 
}

you can only assign a string value to the Gender, and this value can be one of “homme” or “Femme”. For example,

Gender: "homme"

From the documentation (Mongoose - Built-in Validators) it shows that the Gender can be defined as:

Gender: { type: String,
          enum: [ "Homme", "Femme" ]
}

Hello @Nour_ha, Generally the data from the form is received as strings and these are mapped to the data in the database thru the application. As you know, the application connects to the database via a driver (possibly with mapping using an ODM).
