At PeopleMaps, we’ve always believed that personality is about who you are—not the labels society assigns to you. That’s why we’ve made an important change: our personality questionnaire is now completely gender-neutral.
Why Did We Remove Gender-Related Questions?
The simple answer? Because gender has no bearing on personality.
When Carl Jung laid the foundations of personality psychology, he didn’t define personality by gender. Instead, he explored psychological preferences—how people think, make decisions, and interact with the world. These preferences are universal.
Yet, many personality tests still ask for gender, either out of habit or because they believe it affects results. At PeopleMaps, we know it doesn’t. Our system has always been designed to measure personality preferences directly—without making assumptions based on demographics.
Creating a More Comfortable Experience for Everyone
We also recognize that not everyone identifies within a binary gender framework. Asking users to select a gender or pronoun can be an unnecessary and uncomfortable step. Personality profiling should be an inclusive and insightful experience, not one that makes anyone feel singled out.
By removing gender-related questions, we’ve taken another step toward ensuring that every individual who completes a PeopleMaps assessment feels completely at ease.
What This Means for You
If you’re already familiar with PeopleMaps, the only difference you’ll notice is that we no longer ask for gender when you complete a profile. That’s it. The insights remain just as powerful, just as tailored to you—without any unnecessary labels.
For new users, this change helps reinforce what PeopleMaps has always stood for: accurate, practical personality insights that help people thrive—without bias, assumptions, or outdated conventions.
The Future of Personality Psychology
We believe this is the direction all personality assessments should be heading. If personality profiling is to remain relevant and inclusive, it must focus purely on personality psychology, not external factors.
This is just one of many ways PeopleMaps is working to redefine personality profiling for the modern world.
