Presenting: The Slashers Survey (a day late cause I forgot to post this here yesterday)

[bubosquared]

The Slashers Survey is a 76-question survey trying to collect information about slashers, and giving slashers an excuse to talk about themselves, why they read/write, and all things slash.

Part of the idea behind the survey is to collect some hard data on the slash "community". Average age, average "fannish" age, whether they also write gen and/or het, etc. Often, in discussions, a subject comes up that really requires some actual statistics on slash fandom to be discussed in anything but a hypothetical sense. Hopefully, this survey will provide at least somewhat accurate data on slash fandom.

The collected date will of course be collated into stats, graphs, and spreadsheets, and all individual entries will be published on the site.

I considered it, but I know I'd screw up and publish contact details of someone who didn't want it, and this is simpler for me.

Oh, and also, all of femgeeks is blocked from search robots (at least my sites are), so nothing ought to be showing up in search sites.

Well, given the number of submissions you already got (I just saw), that doesn't seem entirely unlikely. ^^; Oh well, it'll be interesting to see what everyone else has said, I just hope I didn't say anything unforgivably stupid in mine.

And yeah, true, at least not in the ones commonly used. *nodnod*
