It's a design test survey, so even if you come and answer no questions at all it's really helpful!

The 11th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 13th June 2024.

It’s short and easy, about 5 minutes probably.

After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.

If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful - it’s what helped us get 40,000 responses last year.

Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com

The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.

For the curious, you can also spy on some graphs and demographic data for the incoming responses here.

Thank you so much!

I’m looking for trans people who attend a UK university to take part in my research into the feelings of belonging and safety of transgender university students! Please consider taking this brief anonymous questionnaire (5-10 minutes) to discuss what would improve your university experience as a trans person!

"Of the 84,170 adult respondents, 38% identified as nonbinary, 35% identified as transgender women, 25% identified as transgender men and 2% identified as cross-dressers."

More nonbinary people than any other group, and the sample is huge! This echoes what I've seen suggested in other survey results too, it's exciting and interesting to me.

To be woken up by my sister at 3 in the morning, asking if I or friends were here was definitely not something I wanted.

My community at home just got attacked and I doubt we'll get justice, but I need you all to know. Our community is still at risk, still in danger, and tonight just solidified it.
