Hi @WeAreTheFSA @EHRC @EHRCChair @KishwerFalkner @trussliz @GEOgovuk 

In your 'Women in Football Survey 2021' you say it is open "to women who follow either the men's or women's professional game"

surveymonkey.co.uk/r/women-at-the… 1/8
You ask, "What is your gender?" with oprions:

Male
Female
Non-binary
Prefer not to say
I prefer to self-identify as... 2/8
You don't say what you mean by 'gender' or why you ask this question but it's odd that you include the terms for the two sexes (female and male), but you don't ask participants to confirm they meet the essential requirement of your survey: that they are female. 3/8
You then ask, "Is your gender identity the same as you were assigned at birth?"

You also don't say what you mean by 'gender identity' but whatever you mean by it, I'm fairly sure it is not something that is 'assigned at birth'. 4/8
'Gender' and similar terms rely on demeaning, regressive stereotypical notions of societal roles for the two sexes, concepts with which I'm sure you would not wish to be associated. 5/8
Your survey asks a number of questions about sexism including, "Do you think stewards at your club understand sexism..." and questions about toilets for women and girls, period products and pregnancy. 6/8
To understand sexism and the needs of women and girls, you first have to understand what a sex is. 7/8
Will you undertake to review your survey to address these issues?

Please respond.

As it is a part of your job application process, I assume its purpose is to help you to ensure that you are recruiting without unlawfully discriminating under the Equality Act 2010.
