And wouldn't you know, it's possible to do that, even when one holds a strong position on the subject. And it didn't take very long for us to write it.

Could you fill it in, and share with your friends so we can present our own evidence to counter whatever bilge the City of London comes up with.

here you go

I've filled this in. Thanks for making the questions so much clearer, although my responses are probably almost identical to the previous questionnaire.

THANK YOU MANFRIDAY!!!!!

Iamtoocowardlytobespartacus · 01/08/2018 16:46

filled in

thank you for bringing this to my attention, it is excellent in that it highlights the conflation between sex and gender in the original and is explicit in explaining the services that may be impacted

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 01/08/2018 16:51

That is an excellent rewrite!

Thanks for that.

Cuntysnark · 01/08/2018 17:11

Done

Phew!. Took me a while but I did it. Thank you. What an excellent way of addressing the dire apology for a survey that the original was.

Melamin · 01/08/2018 17:53

Beautifully done. I have enjoyed the e-mail exchange you put on the Manfriday site. manfridayuk.org/2018/07/28/why-do-the-ponds-matter/

BirthCanal · 01/08/2018 17:54

Filled in thankyou MF Star

Agastache · 01/08/2018 18:08

Thank you chaps.

AtreidesFreeWoman · 01/08/2018 18:08

Done 👍

Anlaf · 01/08/2018 18:13

So good! Lovely and clear. One thing, the "anything else you'd like to add" question at the end was mandatory which is a bit of a lady-ball-ache.

Tremendous work

aaarrrggghhhh · 01/08/2018 18:17

Exceptional. A Plain English delight. Done.

Wanderabout · 01/08/2018 18:22

Done.

Can you add 'This would mean people with a PENIS in the ladies facilities' with big flashing lights around the caps.

gendercritter · 01/08/2018 18:30

Thank you!

Ariclock · 01/08/2018 18:41

Done and it's so much clearer than the other one! Yours makes so much more sense and was much quicker to fill in.

thebewilderness · 01/08/2018 18:46

So much clearer than the City Corporation's bizarre effort to get people on board with their violating the law.

TheCountryGirl · 01/08/2018 18:48

I LOVE ManFriday! Cheers lads!😀

IAMcorbyndallas · 01/08/2018 18:50

Done!

NotTerfNorCis · 01/08/2018 18:51

Done it. Is there a link to the original so I can compare?

secretsciurusvulgaris · 01/08/2018 18:56

Done

ThinkIveFoundYourMarbles · 01/08/2018 19:15

Thank you! Just completed it. What a joy to fill out after the biased nonsense provided by the City of London.

Also had a look at the email exchange on the #manfriday website. I'm absolutely stunned that he basically admitted that there was a problem with the key terminology but thought it best to go ahead anyway, that all respondents would be expected to just 'get it'.

GaspingShark · 01/08/2018 19:30

it's so much clearer than the other one!

Really? What does "Services for men or women will be open to anyone who states that their gender identity is neither male nor female, or both, or sometimes one or the other" mean?

Only I think they might also be open to men and women, and if you'd stuck with "unisex" everybody would understand that.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 01/08/2018 20:22

Done. Very well done ManFriday. Exact same questions in plain English.

Abouttoblow · 01/08/2018 20:29

Completed! Smile

I also have to share that I received a Stonewall survey today to assess how supportive my workplace is to LGBT staff. This came via my employer, not really sure why.
Anyway, I spent loads of time completing it and on every occasion that it asked about my gender I left the drop down alone and typed "My sex is female". Every single time!
It felt really good Grin
