As a workaround if you have an admin theme I would try enabling
birthday and just hiding what you don't want showed by using CSS in
the theme. Or try using the portal properties below.
This need just isn't a priority for them, I don't think they are
taking it seriously, but if we speak up you can add your need to my
need (same need) and we can demostrate that the need is there for them
to properly handle this feature and make it workable.

I got this respnse from help:
-
If you wish to customize
individually the fields that users are allowed to edit
to true/false, you can use the following properties
(uncommented) with the proper email domain set as values:
field.editable.domains[birthday]=
field.editable.domains[emailAddress]=
field.editable.domains[firstName]=
field.editable.domains[gender]=
field.editable.domains[jobTitle]=
field.editable.domains[lastName]=
field.editable.domains[middleName]=
field.editable.domains[portrait]=
field.editable.domains[prefix]=
field.editable.domains[screenName]=
field.editable.domains
[suffix]=
Once you’ve applied these
settings to your portal-ext.properties, you can test as
any non-administrator user to verify this workaround.
