Survey for aromantics of all ages and genders.

[Your Sweetest Nightmare]

Hello. I am Your Sweetest Nightmare and I am writing a book about the asexual and aromantic communities. Below is a survey for all aromantics. THE SURVEY ENDS EXACTLY A WEEK AFTER IT IS POSTED. Here is the survey. Thank you.

What kind of book? Self or traditionally pubbed?

How will the answers be used? What personal/private data does the survey collect from us?

[Your Sweetest Nightmare]

@hemogoblin I am aiming for the book to be traditionally published. The answers will be recorded in the book as part of my research and is meant to highlight certain facts about the ace and aro communities (most aces are female, in their 20s, etc.) and the struggles they face. The surveys are also 100% anonymous.

Do you have interest/have you published before or will you wait for a finished product before reaching out to anybody?

Will you be directly quoting any responses given? How will folk be credited, if so?

[Your Sweetest Nightmare]

@hemogoblin I have not written a book before. This is my first. I will be directly quoting responses given, as surveys are 100% anonymous.

Example: “[quote]” — An AMAB nonbinary respondent in their 30s.

I also plan on getting interviews once all surveys are done, where they can choose to go by their real name or a fake name as they wish.

Why is the survey open for only a week? Seems pretty short.

Also what is "aged based arophobia?"

I'd think it's the "you're too young" argument that's used sometimes when a younger person comes out as aro
