Seventeen Honest Questions
The Private Drawer Survey: What Women Really Keep, Hide and Tell Each Other

Thank you for coming back for the longer version.

This takes about six minutes. Seventeen questions, entirely anonymous — we don't ask for your name or your email, and we don't want them. We ask your age bracket and your living situation because those turn out to be the two things that explain almost everything, and we ask about where things are kept, who knows, and whether anyone's ever found out.

A few questions are more personal than others. Skip anything you'd rather not answer; partial responses are still useful to us. There's a "prefer not to say" option wherever we thought you might want one, and if we've missed a spot, the last question is an open box where you can tell us so.

One request: answer as you actually are, not as you feel you ought to be. The whole reason this is worth doing is that nobody has asked honestly before.
