One of my good friends and DM is hosting a survey to collect data for a Bachelor's thesis on personal exploration of gender and sexuality via TTRPGs. If y'all would be willing to take it and share it, it would be very appreciated.

Identity in TTRPGs

This form evaluates data within the frame of a bachelor's thesis for the Universität Wien. It focuses on the topics of identity, and how ide

I will eventually get back to properly posting on Tumblr, but for now, and especially since ik I have mutuals over 35+ years old (which my buddy is in dire need of data wise), I will stick to this little post and hope it spreads.

Is that a better outcome? What do you think?
