Yes or no.. I'm thinking no... but i'm not entirely sure.
For example if I have Marital Status, or Education. Can those be skewed if they are nominal level data?
You are correct; they cannot be skewed.

To determine if nominal level data can be skewed, it is important to understand what "skewness" means in statistical terms. Skewness refers to the asymmetry of a probability distribution. For symmetric distributions, the skewness is zero. However, for skewed distributions, it can have a positive or negative value, indicating the direction and degree of skew.
In the case of nominal level data such as Marital Status or Education, these variables are categorical and do not have a natural ordering or numerical value associated with them. As a result, it would not be meaningful to compute skewness for these variables because they do not represent quantities that can be arranged in a linear order.
Skewness is more applicable for variables that are at least ordinal level, where the values have an inherent order or ranking. Measurements such as age, income, or test scores, which have numerical values and an order, can be meaningful to calculate skewness.
In summary, nominal level data such as Marital Status or Education cannot be skewed because they do not possess the characteristics necessary for skewness analysis.
