3. Sex: Is [the respondent] male or female?

15.2 Section II. List of people and general data
The section is made up of questions that allow us to know the number of people who are habitual residents of the housing unit, and in addition, to record the gender, age, and relationship of each person with respect to the head of the housing unit.

Remember that it is very important to record all the residents of the housing unit since the 2020 Population and Housing Census must count all the people living in the country.

3. Gender
When you can identify by the person's name whether they are a woman or a man, or you are asking for the respondent's data, just mention the person's name, confirm the corresponding gender, and ask question 4. age.

Example: Ana is female, how old is she?
When the name is uncommon such as: Andárani, Yuritzi, Erubey, Éder, or if it is used for both men and women: Guadalupe, Rosario, Inés, Asunción, Refugio, Concepción, Soledad, then you do ask the gender question.

Example: Is Refugio a man or a woman?
