ASP.NET Core has built-in Html.GetEnumSelectList() method we can use to turn enum members to select list items.

            <label asp-for="Type" class="control-label"></label>
            <select asp-for="Type" 
                    class="form-control" 
                    asp-items="Html.GetEnumSelectList<EnumName>()">
                <option>Select Gender</option>
            </select>
