As someone who does have a vagina I'd either answer "no" or leave it blank. I would kick up hell if there was no "do you have a problem with your penis" question.
I agree wholeheartedly. I guess there IS no 'do you have a problem with your penis' question and just leaving it blank or answering 'no' kind of avoids the issue which is that this questionnaire is blatantly offensive. Some may choose to just comply and some may choose to kick up a stink. I'm one of the latter. And it's perfectly acceptable to be someone who kicks up a stink at these things.If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0 -

Over a questionnaire? That you can leave blank if you wish?

Why aren't questions about penis health on the questionnaire?
What has it got to do with your employer whether your vagina is healthy or not? Does a healthy vagina mean you do a better day's work than someone without a healthy vagina? Perhaps you would like to wax lyrical about your vagina's health?If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0 -
