A 2018 survey of "Attitudes to Gender", ran by the Britain-based "Future of Legal Gender" project, asked people if they agree or disagree with the statement "More people will identify as agender (not having a gender) in the future." 32.4% selected "agree" and 13.7% selected "strongly agree". 20.6% selected "neither agree nor disagree" and 19.7% "don't know", compared to a mere 6.6% "disagree" and 7% "strongly disagree". (71% of nonbinary respondents agreed or strongly agreed.)<ref name="FLG">{{Cite web |title=Survey Findings |author= |work=The Future of Legal Gender |date= |access-date=9 April 2020 |url= https://futureoflegalgender.kcl.ac.uk/gender-in-everyday-life/}}</ref> | |||
