Nonbinary and intersex stuff isn't really my bailiwick, as I am neither. I'm always in favor of annoying statisticians, though.

Favorite factoid regarding people getting creative with the census: as I recall, in the 2000 US census, several hundred people claimed to use the "subway" in Cincinnati, despite the fact that Cincinnati has no subway.

I use a "subway": the tunnel under the road by the railway station. There are no transportation questions in our census, however.

What did those poor, innocent statisticians ever do to you?
