Survey following the hieroglyphics exhibition at the British Museum

So we attended the exhibition and we were sent a survey via email. It started off well but we were then alerted to a section containing questions of a more 'personal nature'.
I found one question utterly bizarre. It was along the lines of ' Has attending the exhibition made you consider changing your gender?'
FFS, this is basically an exhibition of the Rosetta Stone and how it was used to decipher hieroglyphics. How on earth could it ever have that effect?

Ta for the heads up about the exhibition, BTW.

I think it's just a generic question that will go out for every exhibition - like the NHS asking 68 year old me 'could you be pregnant?' before my covid jab. I'm trying to think what exhibition could affect me so powerfully that I'd want to change gender, but I don't reckon it's seeing the Rosetta Stone that would do it.

Exactly. I was wondering whether they include it in every single survey or whether I was meant to pick up on a mysterious gender-switching code in the exhibits. I seem to have completely missed it! 😆
