And now that my family have been here for 200 years, arriving in 1824 from Sommeset in England as free settlers, with a contract to work and manage land and sheep for the famous AA Company, I no longer FEEL like an immigrant so I will be listing my family as natives of Australia, so we will become Aboriginals!
I guess with these metrics for guidance at least they’ll finally be able to get handle on the number of self-absorbed, mentally unstable, stark raving narcissists there are in the country.
If the government wants to pursue this farce, why should the vast majority of the population who identify as normal heterosexuals take this section of the census as a serious question?
This would have been the perfect opportunity to show some guts and a fight back against this madness, by staying with a Male or Female question and not pandering to very confused or mentally ill people.
What about those who identify as cats? Or any other animal or bird or living thing. Or inanimate object. Or feel or desire to be a god rather than a human person? What about those who believe they are reincarnated so they can put their birth year as any year in the last 5,000 years. The choices are unlimited.
It’s well past the time that Australia needs leadership rather than the fawning we are experiencing with the current mob. Somebody needs stand up & put a sock into this lunacy.
Oh dear, the hilarity continues - yes Dianne, by the time the census is ready, we'll have run out of paper! This is stupidiocracy at its best. Just keep going Albo - the hole is getting bigger and soon we will be able to fill it in ... Jodie, get out while you can!
Does our valued government imagine we're becoming a nation of sex chameleons ?
Your penultimate para is the key to this madness. Being, that we are no longer prepared to distinguish between biological fact and subjective emotion.
The steady decline of the Christian West continues. While we continue to be led by weak cowards, nothing will stop that.
Absolutely correct.
Doesn’t the + in the alphabet people refer to pedophiles? They should be forced to own up to their type.
The practicers of bestiality must feel left out . (FFS dont tell the wog or he will include them into the census.)
Good point!
Romans 1:28 describes the depravity of the mind. How fitting this verse is for today, but also how sad.
Thank you for this Biblical reference.

Indigenous…you don’t have to prove it and much more lucrative
My ancestors arrived on the First Fleet so I will not be told by anyone that I dont belong here .
Me too

Are you describing federal cabinet Alex ?
There is that interesting aspect to the question. Thank you.
It is a ridiculous question. The government is already in our bedrooms in NSW. The bureaucrats needs to keep out of our bedrooms too!

To include such questions in any census is an outrage!
I'm soooo upset, because I identify as a dog, and there's no box for me to tick. In fact I'm sooo 😠 Woof!!! Woof Woof!!! Woof Woof Woof!!!
And I am not really a green frog, but an enchanted prince! Will there be a box for me to tick as well?

The next census must be soooo inclusive - and at least 1000 pages long.
The census is so passé….the illegal immigrants never do them so there is no accuracy or credibility at all

Or a throw a spanner into the wheels of this nut machine.

I wonder how much paper it would use to list all these genders? Then there also needs to be one that says” mind your own business “
So true. 72 genders plus unlimited sexual preferences plus feelings, means unlimited extra pointless questions.
The census should also be printed in every language so no one feels discriminated against.
The BS meter just blew a fuse, James. The whingey, multisexual, multispecies crowd cannot be satisfied - ever.
Very droll!
