"How many couples and singles have admitted to being bi on today's census? It may be difficult for some as all the family are involved." We have. It’s all anonymous, we’re the adults in the house and frankly no harm in it. For some where other family members are filling it on behalf I can appreciate the challenge. | |||

"me, there was not a box for bi-curious and whilst i am not fully gay or even totally bi i am not fully 'straight' either so where do i fit in. there was no box for 'fucking confused' either ! " Yeah I (Mr) feel this. I’m not straight but wouldn’t go as far as bi (yet) either. That said there’s only so many options you can put on something like this I guess. | |||

"To be honest I didn’t see what my sexually had to do with what Sainsbury’s are going to stock in the next 10 years..... " But I'm sure Sainsbury's would like to know if their staff represents the community they serve. So if they have optional staff survey (the sexuality of say their Brighton branches) they could look at the Census and see if they are hitting a target. This could help them design their services and serve LGBTQI+ customers better. | |||

"Definitely bi, no reason to be ashamed Although wouldn’t it have been funny if there was no COVID and someone was having a swinging party, that could have made for a long and complicated census ?? " | |||
"Pointless labelling , what you feel like doing on Sunday you might not want to do a week on Tuesday ! Get away from the labels and stereotypes and just be what you want , when you want. If you want people to stop making it up then stop asking them pointless questions " | |||

"There was an option for ‘other’ I wrote mind as bi playful (male) and partner bisexual " I wonder how many have put 'Pansexual'? | |||
" I wonder how many have put 'Pansexual'?" There's still time. Polysexual and Hypersexual would also be interesting replies. | |||

"Very few of us are 100% heterosexual or 100% homosexual. Most of us are found somewhere in between. It's called probability distribution." I looked for that option but it wasn't there. | |||

"put mine in the bin, i like to fly below the radar, and as i live alove, no useful data will come from it, compleat waste of money inmho, and im not interested in voting either, as all parties say they will change the world, but it seems the country is run by civil servants who arent ellected, in my 50 years on the planet, ive not noticed anythik different about any one in power, apart from they all waste moe money than the last in power, and before you say that i cant moan about it, ive long since given up on that" Are you aware that you can be fined £1000 for not completing it? | |||

Refusal is a criminal offence which carries a fine plus additional court costs. Its really not worth it. | |||

I didn't think people were generally fined, thought it was something to do with this guy called Adolf who did something a bit naughty with all that information once upon a time. "Hitler notably used the European Census in his conquests across Europe." https://epic.org/privacy/census/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/how_many_individuals_have_been_p It seems a few are and I'm not sure on what basis the CPS would decide to prosecute. Probably more to do with deliberately giving false information for financial gain or something. Of course you would be breaking the law and *could* be fined, as all the news headlines seem to be saying; but they do like to drum up sales by making everyone scared. Do your own research, get legal advice, blah blah blah | |||
