I'm trying to save a record in the database after submitting a form with valid data but I´m getting the next error:
Expected value of type "AppBundle\Entity\Gender" for association field "AppBundle\Entity\Usuario#$gender", got "string" instead.
I want to save a record in Usuario table but I don´t understand why it doesn't work like this.
My entities are:
