Just did it.

Took seven minutes all up, including retrieving code and changing password.

Impressed at how simple it was.

Pisses me off there’s no question allowing me to state my sexuality.
Ok, most of you closet occupants would be too scared, but me, I wan’t to wave my queer little flag in public given census results influence where state and federal funding is allocated.

Why do you need government money to be bent?

In 'Religion' there's an 'Other' option.

You could put it in there.

Since when was being a fairy a religion? Besides, that would prevent me listing myself as agnostic.

Why do you need government morey to be bent?

For one thing, given the connection between fundamentalist Christianity et al and gay/lesbian youth suicide in Nth Tasmania I’d like to see more Gov’t finance devoted to, for instance, phone in crisis counselling, psychological/psychaitric support in our area. This isn’t an airy-fairy issue, it’s a matter of life and death I see too often.

Changing subject here but I’m getting pissed off with the media’s reporting of horrifying increases in youth suicide. Two well documented causes are never mentioned, being queer and being young and smart enough to know the planet is being destroyed by so called grown ups.

You could start your own religion.

Why do homosexuals require specific government funding?

: Edit to note I just read your post above. You think youth suicide is specifically related to homosexuality?

Quote:

Last month, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) confirmed that questions relating to queer identities were not included.

In papers given to the Senate: “the ABS noted the potential question[s] on sexual orientation met the ‘no alternative data source’ criterion to a high extent.”

While they did highlight the importance of data covering “the health needs” of non-binary people and other diverse individuals, ultimately, “there was a ‘limited case’” for including it on the Census.

Look at this pharkin' sheeit. The heterophobic community are at it again trying to push their pharkin' homosexual agenda. As if it means that they are trying to challenge the majority of people to accept homosexuality as being a priority sexuality. There was a "non-binary" option on the questionaire. I think the ABS has been very generous here.

Should sexual orientation be even a consideration on census forms? What business is it of anyone else what your preference? We are supposed to do a count of how many people there are in Australia and even their origins. If we have a good idea of how many and where people are, then we have an idea where funding should be going for future projects.

You put in the code. You put in the password. You spend 10 minutes clicking buttons on relevant questions. "pain in the arse"??? I would hate to see how well you do in a war zone.

Irish paid for the fairy people when a roadway was diverted.
https://www.irishtimes.com/news/fairy-bush-survives-the-motorway-planners-1.190053

According to Mr Lenihan, the bush is a marker in a fairy path and was the rendezvous point for Kerry fairies on their way to do battle with the Connacht fairies. Under the bush, Mr Lenihan claims, the Kerry fairies would regroup and consult on what might be the best tactics in battle. He said their white blood has been seen on a number of occasions on the surrounding grass.

He warned of terrible consequences if the fairy bush was destroyed, saying that the site in 10 to 15 years' time may have a higher than usual casualty list, including fatalities. Last night, Mr Lenihan said he was very glad at the outcome. "I didn't think there would be any need from every point of view that it should be cut down. I'm happy people have seen sense."
