The 2026 Gender Census is now open!

[ survey.gendercensus.com ]

The 13th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 13th August 2026.

It’s short and easy, for most participants it takes 5 minutes or less.

After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.

If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful!

Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com

The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.

Thank you so much!

‼️URGENT. HELP FTM DISABLED ARTIST NOT GO HOMELESS THIS MONTH‼️

I went through loss and mental health crisis I never could’ve predicted, my life is fucked up and I’m facing homelessness, I need to try to keep my home and recover my space, I poured so many resources trying to get roommates and help with reducing responsibilities and it all went so badly and drained me/ made my mental health worse. Seeking help from family made things even worse worse too due to their transphobia, I was so desperate, I have no choice now but to beg here because my safety nets all failed, I set out out patient care since I am beginning to experience horrific mental health disorders and live alone, I been sleeping on the floor for 2 months because no matter what I cannot get ahead, please consider helping me stay housed and get my life back to normal, if I make enough from this I can perhaps invest in drivers school and become more self sufficient , I just want to keep my home and make it home again , I’ve been dealing with so much for months and months I didn’t know it’d get so bad I’d need a psych ward and near constant hospitalization. Please share this, I know I shouldn’t beg for help, I’ve tried every resource and plan I could and I have nothing left and no one left who can help me, I am severely disabled so I cannot work anymore, I am hopefully with outpatient I can, I am chronically shaking from paranioa, I’m always ill, I just want life to get easier and to be less disabled but I really need to stay here to receive this help, I can’t stay with anyone else, I’ve tried and I can’t afford to bring anyone else here. I’m so devastated because I have to grieve right now too and I can’t, I miss art, but unless I can secure my life a little more I cannot function enough to draw, it feels like life is over, my chihuahua is not in my care and I cannot get him back until I am stable w/ living situation, he is my only friend. https://ko-fi.com/tostyartrent/goal?g=27
