So my parents passed the census over for a neighbour to do (I offered but my netbook Eustace is a glitchy unreliable bastard at the best of times) and now Solihull Council thinks I'm a straight man. HAHAHAHAHAFUCKNO.

I refused the religion question and the gender identity question.

But I would say to anyone to answer them if they make you feel more comfortable, especially if you are of NO religion (I'm a Quaker).

Trouble with the gender ID question is that the usual suspects (terfs + transphobes) got a court judgement to prevent it from being of any real use. Having been born with PAIS, I'm intersexed as well as trans but it didn't allow for any explanation, so no.

Religion's a bit tough for me - I usually say "atheist" because nobody offers the "godless heathen" option! If I'd had the chance, l'd have ticked "liminal" on both options.

I have some reasons to think I *may* be intersex - but some of them are tangled up with horrible events and it's not something I want to research right now.

I can understand that. I only found out that I had an intersex condition when I went onto medication to deal with trans issues and they found that the anti androgens sent me weird because I wasn't snythesising androgens anyway.

Suddenly my short height, small hands, high cheekbones, small brow ridge, tiny ears and so on all made sense!
