The paper presents a non-conventional approach to non-participation in survey-respondents' behaviour. The topic of the analysis is the attitudes to certain minorities in the population - sexual minorities, people with body and mental handicap. These sexual and bodily forms of otherness are being discussed in the conceptual framework of cultural and intimate citizenship. Empirical data indicate a significantly higher incidence of respondents' refusal to answer questions concerning conditions, chances and needs of citizens with above mentioned otherness - as compared to assessing conditions of other minorities; simultaneously, claims for help from the society are significantly less acknowledged for these groups. A demographic profile of the most frequently 'refusing' respondents is characteristic by certain education, age and residence size. Results are discussed in the context of the overall value-background in Slovakia, its political development, and current discourses on sexual and bodily otherness.

In this study, we loosely draw on the assumptions of cultural intimacy theory (Herzfeld, 2005) that there is something like shared knowledge and emotional attachment to certain cultural stereotypes in every nation. We suggest that in the area of intimate partner relationships, such cultural intimacy is currently gender stereotyped and imbalanced in partner relationships that stem from a patriarchal power model that is disadvantageous to women. However, it can be assumed that the current generation of young men and women have different priorities and aspirations for partner relationships. The study answers the questions: What are these priorities? Who is contributing to a positive change in this area: men or women? In an empirical study we investigated the priorities in intimate partner relationships of young men and women in Slovakia (n=655). Results which yielded significant gender differences in preferences are discussed with current trends in partner relationships as well as with the assumed concept of Slovak national cultural intimacy.
