Census

[Caran]

In the census that is due in a couple of months there is a new question. Not sure of exact wording but something like "What is your sexual preference" what will you answer, I may put not, yet decided, or MYOB

[mike11111]

If the question is worded such, I would be sorely tempted to answer with the most outlandish sexual perversion I could think of. Phrasing a question like that is just inviting ridicule.

This might be a better question if if was based upon fact, rather than on myth. There are no questions about sexual preferences in the new census:

Just as an aside, can anyone explain this from the census form?
17 This question is intentionally left blank go to 18
18 What is your main language?

[Buenchico]

Hi Mike:
Q17 only appears in the Welsh language version of the form.

It asks (in Welsh)
"Can you understand, speak, read or write Welsh?
> Understand spoken Welsh
> Speak Welsh
> Read Welsh
> Write Welsh
> None of the above"

the question is in CB though Chris, but yes, that is the case

[Caran]

According to express (Janet Street porter) How many bedrooms.who spent the night in them.how well we speak english. have we a same sex cival partner, have we a second home, identitiy and sex of overnight guests.

If Welsh people manage to get as far as Q 17 on the form, it would seem that the answer is obvious. I would love to see how many answer, 'dim un o'r uchod'!
