ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity::Error in CustomersController#edit

Can't mass-assign protected attributes: gender

Here my models

Customer     GenderManager        Gender
ID           Id                   Id
First        isVisible            Description
Last         GroupID
Email
...

Here my relationship

class Customer < ActiveRecord::Base
# RELATIONSHIP
    #Gender
    has_many :gender_managers
    accepts_nested_attributes_for :gender_managers, allow_destroy: :true
end
class GenderManager < ActiveRecord::Base
# RELATIONSHIP
    belongs_to :customer
    has_one :gender
    attr_accessible :customer_id, :friendship_group_id, :isUsed,
    :isVisible, :genders_attributes
    accepts_nested_attributes_for :gender, allow_destroy: :true

        @customer = Customer.find(params[:id])

You may need to use the build_gender method to build the association.

gender_manager = @customer.gender_managers.build
gender_manager.build_gender

Have you tried just addind :gender to the list of attr_accessible in the GenderManager model ?

But I find the answer above better, with a small correction:

gender_manager = @customer.gender_managers.build
gender_manager.build_gender
