you have a flyer design readily available i can print out to pin on my backpack lowpolycas i actually just finished a 2026 specific a5 flyer which you can find here on google docs and here is the google drive folder of all flyers leaflets thank you very much for helping with promotion and have fun take part in the 2026 gender census before 13th august 2026 alt 23 hours ago 62 notes meta gendercensus alt on the referrers tab of the participation spreadsheet 16 people arrived at the survey from a flyer leaflet and that s right below people who arrived from twitter 22 people i think it would be great and really funny if flyer leaflet could be above twitter that would be so satisfying for me because elon musk is a knobhead and old school hardcopy everything is the best so if everyone could please print out some flyers pdf google doc and stick them up in random unisex toilets changing rooms or pin them on pinboards or stack them on tables or put them in postage paid envelopes from random junk mail and post them etc etc that could help the cause let s stick it to the man elon knobhead musk unrelatedly we re at almost 25 000 responses whaaaaat take part in the 2026 gender census

gender survey gender census gender census 2026 lgbt lgbtq lgbtqia quick and specific pronouns poll this is a poll for people whose gender s or lack thereof are not encompassed by the strict male female binary e g nonbinary and genderqueer people do you want to be referred to by others with pronouns that are based on your name nickname yes not sure no n a i m not the target group for the poll you can go by other pronouns too this poll isn t about going by name based pronouns exclusively example if someone s name is shane their pronouns might be sha shane shanes shanes shaneself shane bought shaneself a long novel for shanes intercontinental flight edit if you are the target group for this poll please consider doing this year s annual gender census survey before 13th august too 1 day ago 79 notes poll nonbinary genderqueer pronouns lgbt lgbtq lgbtqia gender halfway today is day 16 which is officially halfway through this year s big annual survey on identity words pronouns titles and family relationship terms for people whose experience of their gender s or lack thereof defy or fall outside of the binary model of gender take part here usually at this point we d be 80 90 of the way to the eventual total number of participants because the responses come in very fast at the beginning and then slow down a lot after the first week and continue to slow more gradually until the end this year looks like this so far with the red line being 2026 alt those of you using screen readers may have an easier time on the original google sheets table of data here so i would guess that we re heading for about 30 000 participants in total this is pretty low compared to the last couple of years so i got curious and added a few more years of data alt those of you using screen readers may have an easier time on the original google sheets table of data here yeah it s low the lowest since 2020 the three lines below the 2026 lines are 2018 2019 and 2020 all the more recent lines are way higher up and i think i ve figured it out 2020 is when smartsurvey the previous survey provider changed their premium plan so that i would have to pay a lot more to be able to edit the thank you page that people see after they ve submitted the form before 2020 when i could edit the thanks for taking part page that s where i put the hey can you also share this survey social media links so in 2021 when smartsurvey wouldn t let me edit it without paying extra i put a page right after the consent checkboxes like before we get started can you share the survey please i e i was asking people to share the survey right at the beginning before they had entered any information i remember at the time being concerned that having the survey sharing links at the start of the survey would make people click away and i would lose participants but it seems to have basically doubled participation for 2021 and onwards presumably through extra sharing numbers got so high that it was a good idea to limit the survey to one month even at the time it wasn t really possible to know for sure whether the huge jump in participation was down to the sharing page being at the start of the survey or just some other thing like a critical mass of social media followers mailing list subscribers i left it there at the start because smartsurvey didn t change that rule for several years and this year i twitched to trello who do let you edit the thank you page so since i was remaking the survey from scratch i figured i may as well put the sharing links at the end where people expect to see them participation has been wayyyyy down for the first few days i couldn t tell by looking at social media emails anon asks because the volume is always too high to deal with and this year was no exception but i was distracted by the aforementioned technical difficulties and other life stuff however by the end of day 2 it was clear that participation was very low and i just blamed myself for not having time to do as much promotion as usual a couple of days ago survey day 14 i remembered about my suspicion several years back re the sharing page being near the beginning causing the jump in participation i put a please share the survey links page right after the consent checkboxes again just to see what happened and i know we re in the final stretch now but participation does seem to have been bolstered i feel like it s taking less promotional work from me to keep the numbers up thus concludes my interesting discovery of the year but while i ve got your attention if you had to return your gender due to a manufacturing fault please click here to participate in our annual gender language survey it closes on 13th august 2026 2 days ago 240 notes progress report gc2026 meta dkettchen dkettchen i recently participated in this trans heart health study and they urgently need more participants before their funding runs out this summer in 2026 as they ve had less than 10 so far it s crazy if you re a trans person in the uk who s been on hrt for 2 years and can reasonably get to leicester they reimbourse travel expenses and buy you lunch consider participating you d be doing a good thing for our community at large get a heart check up while you re at it and if you do the mri scan you even get to see a video of your heart beating it s really cool the study is run by some lovely people who are trying to establish normal values for trans people s heart health cause apparently heart size varies by sex and hrt changes it so cardiologists currently straight up don t know what is normal for trans patients the study involves pedalling on an exercise bike and getting an mri scan as the two main bits but all parts are optional if you re not comfortable with any of them they re happy to accomodate for any access needs and can give you more detail when you email them naila the researcher from the above study is currently running a short anonymous survey exploring what stops some transgender people from taking part in research studies it takes about 4 minutes to complete and all responses are confidential consider participating or sharing it via averixus 3 days ago 441 notes research not the gender census alt day 15 and 25 000 responses if you re confident finding your own gendery way or you re content to be genderly lost do our survey 3 days ago 125 notes lgbt lgbtq lgbtqia survey alt check out this fun graph that google sheets made on the public participation spreadsheet very briefly while i was updating it d it s back to normal now but it was gloriously incomprehensible while it lasted ps if this is a semi accurate picture of your gender please do this survey 3 days ago 127 notes meta graphs google sheets any idea when we can expect the name survey results anonymous nope i have adhd and i m a bit demand avoidant so it s gonna surprise me as much as it does you context this ask is 5 days old name survey participate here 3 days ago 71
