Woah everyone, let's take a step back here, who is going to collate and manage the responses to this questionnaire?



This questionnaire is collecting extremely confidential PII and is most certainly not anonymous and confidential as stated in the document. 



Is this going to be managed by a competent research firm or is this to be analysed by ICANN org or whom?



I have serious concerns about this process from a pure process point of view and from a European legal point of view.

Hi



Mike, agree w/ all your edits



Ayden, indeed sexual orientation is missing but I wonder if this couldn't be a whole new other survey on LGBTQI in the community



A few things I commented when the survey was in WS2 Div which had no support so did not make it to the final doc:



- Young women - including the negative perception that young women would exceptionally deemed unfit for leadership positions or looked down



- Regional perspective - Women from rural areas have to strive more to be included, same for developing countries



- Blockage of leadership positions - it is possible that there are those who - not gender activists -  feel blocked at leadership positions due to gender or combined factors (gender+age, gender+region

etc)



- Race - another factor, which, if combined, could influence perceptions



Again, this was all discussed but isn't on the doc. I think it should be but...

Also there is a hope that cross-checking data - for instance - how different ages respond to each question - could provide some knowledge.



I would rather see these combined factors phrased as stand-alone questions in themselves for clearer results.



Cross-checking can work but one can also, as the saying goes, "torture data until it says what one wants"



Best,



Renata
