In my opinion programming surveys should focus on development area and leave demographics, personal questions to someone else.
I see no other reason for asking these questions than following the money.

Right, and now think about this for another ten hours and you might capture a slither of what their field is.
For example, yes, women might have a preference for people over code. That’s 100% fine, if there is an actual reason for this preference.
If they just prefer it, because throughout their lives they were told to prefer people over code, because they are women, then that is horseshit and it would be beneficial to society to stop that.
Besides, it’s not just about driving up percentages/diversity. Not all women have a preference for people over code. And even if it’s just 10% of women that prefer code to people, those 10% should feel just as welcome as any men that enter the field.
