Psychology tells us:
If you don't mind me asking—are there any other stereotypes or biases regarding female gamers that you hold which weren't covered in the survey?

You can't really ask a question like that. If someone actually holds deep-seated prejudices, they usually aren't even aware they're doing it. It’s just how the brain works.
Anyway, there’s plenty of discussion on this stuff online if you want to fall down a rabbit hole. Here are a couple of random articles from some US outlets that touch on it: https://www.womensmedia.com/gamer-girls-sexualization/

A bit of an oddball survey, but fine enough.

I went ahead and filled it out myself (and even passed it along to a colleague), though honestly, once you get past those first few questions, the whole thing veers off into some completely different topic. I guess the supervisor signed off on it, though.

I did the exact same thing—chugged a ton of water and popped an aspirin.

I’m honestly surprised this thread hasn't blown up with more activity already.
Does anyone have any actual advice for dealing with weather sensitivity? I feel like my joints start aching the second a storm front rolls into town.
