"With which gender do you identify?" Female/Male/Prefer not to answer

That's pretty generic demographics there...are you offended by the word
"gender"? or "identify"? Get a grip, son.

Survey is pretty bad, though.

Early on, lists a bunch of implementations like "ARexx" "Brexx" "CRexx" and
"Object Rexx" vs. "ooRexx", which I'm 100% sure not all Rexx users are
going to understand. And omits the granddaddy, CMS Rexx.

Then we get to "Together with which external libraries, frameworks or other
programming languages do you use Rexx the most?" which must have by Yoda
been written, and "What is a typical use case of Rexx for you?"

That's where I bailed--meaningless question, will get 1,000 different
answers from 1,000 different respondents, not going to glean anything
useful. Plus I honestly don't know how to answer it: platform? Purpose of
program? Etc. Give me a hint what you're really trying to answer!

Yes, surveys are hard. This one is terrible.
