We are going to describe today an anonymous survey. It’s anonymous. You have a question, no explanation. You may or may not answer it, it’s up to you. No one is forced to answer. It is a simple question – do you trust men? You are going to answer ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. You don’t have to write anything, don’t put your name. If you don’t want to answer it, you don’t have to answer it. It is ‘Yes’ or ‘No’
