ASP.Net MVC Bind Boolean to DropDownList Using @Html.DropDownListFor

I was having difficulty binding a bool property to a DropDownList using the @Html.DropDownListFor() method.  What ended up working well was to do the following:

Add this to the View Controller class:

private void Select_YN_Rebind()
{
  List<SelectListItem> Select_YN = new List<SelectListItem>();
  Select_YN.Add(new SelectListItem
  {
    Text = "No",
    Value = bool.FalseString
  });
  Select_YN.Add(new SelectListItem
  {
    Text = "Yes",
    Value = bool.TrueString
  });
  ViewData["Select_YN"] = Select_YN;
}

Add call to the new method in the View Controller Create method (or whatever other method is appropriate) before returning the view:

public ActionResult Create()
{
  Select_YN_Rebind();
  return View();
}

Call the @Html.DropDownListFor() as shown below:

 @Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.YourBoolPropertyHere
    , (IEnumerable<SelectListItem>)ViewData["Select_YN"])
