Using Sitecore Source value to populate droplink field

Question

using Sitecore I have created a data template

Person Gender

Text : Single Line Text
Key : Number

Then I created 2 new instances of this template in Global content tree:

Text = Male
Key =0

Text = Female
Key=1

After all I've created a new Data Template, called: Person

Name : Single Line
Gender: DropLink (Source: /sitecore/content/home/global/gender/*)

But in instances of Person, DropLink field dosen't show me Female and Male items to select.

Set Source of the Gender field to the parent path:

/sitecore/content/home/global/gender

Skip the /* at the end of it.
