Question 2: Sex
The question, "Is the person male or female?" will not be asked of the persons who are present, you will just write the answer by simple observation. In the case the informant responds for other members of the family, be sure that the information is correct, since there are names that are used for both males and females. For example: Guadalupe, Isabel, Carmen, Socorro, Concepcion, Jesus, Dolores, Maria, etc.
