Is the trans <-> programmer connection as strong as they say it is? If so, why is that? I ask this as a person with a comp sci degree lol

Oh yeah I knew the answer to the Matt Walsh one haha. The spirit of the question really was trying to figure out if it makes sense for me personally to identify as a woman, and right now I believe I feel most comfy as a transfemme nonbinary person.
Yeah I need to get more fluent and comfortable with this idea. I guess it kinda feels nice to be able to neatly put myself into a category that other people are in too. I don’t like the idea of my gender experience being something no one else relates to. So I guess asking if it is a thing is my asking if there are more people than me in this category I’ve thought up during my pondering
HOLY SHITTTTTTTT THAT’S SO MEEEEEEE. Oh my gosh thanks for helping me figure this out. I’m so pumped! The sheer quantity of gender revelations I’ve had on this website since I’ve joined is bonkers.
Who knows, this might change once I eventually try out estrogen, but transfemme enby feels super good right now.
Holy shit reading this post set my noggin spinning. Because that’s exactly what I’ve been feeling. Gender is made up bullshit anyway so what the hell am I doing thinking about transitioning into the opposite end of an arbitrary binary. Everything in me feels like non binary makes the most logical sense for me.
I really don’t feel like a man, and I don’t feel like a woman. But I prefer the fuck out of femme pronouns and my aggressively femme sounding name.
Is nonbinary she/her like… A thing? Cause I think that might be me as fuck. Judging by your post and your set pronouns, is that how you identify?
OK so please don’t Matt Walsh me, but what the fuck is a woman? It’s an undeniable fact that I prefer she/her to he/him. I love my chosen name so many times more than my birth one. Every time I remind myself I’m wearing lady socks, I feel cozy (most accurate word I can think of). But if I ask myself if I actually “feel” like a woman, I can’t answer it. I get that I get to claim the word if I want it, but I can’t figure out if I do. It’s weird.
I have gained gender confusion once again
I found myself some cute ass socks
This unjust depths business has me intrigued
Oh socks! Wonderful idea. I hadn’t even considered that
I want to dress cuter but also don’t want to be overtly trans to my class that’s already giving me trouble. Any tips?
Ohhhhhhhh I see
Wait is being silly a femme thing?
My libido is basically zero and nothing has changed on that front, but after realizing that I’m not aromantic, I just don’t want to date as a guy, I was watching a movie with a scene of romantic intimacy, and it clicked in my brain. “OH! that’s why people bang! Emotional intimacy!” Which is something I knew conceptually, but that was the first time I actually understood. And for the first time ever I thought “you know what that could actually be kinda nice.”
I’m so curious what is gonna happen if/when I get my ass on hrt.
Is my transness coming for my asexuality as well??? Wadda hell? I’ve considered that part of me to be an immutable fact since high school
I totally forgot homestuck existed
My Am*rican ass wishing we had trains
(Probably because it has the capacity to be insanely cute and it’s a sad time when it isn’t)
I kept most of my letters the same but gave a few of my letters little tails that they didn’t have before (l, a, t, and q now have little tails). I rounded out my A’s, W’s and M’s instead of having them be pointy. I also padded out my spacing just a wee little bit to give all of the letters their room to breathe.
I think a lot of it is consistency. I sort of obsessed over making my writing consistent as a kid, so I really just carried over most of my habitual writing and made the few minor adjustments described above. Still experimenting, but I’m vibing with it a lot so far.
My handwriting is already like a full 5 times cuter and I only changed a few things
That makes a lot of sense. Though the trans support group I attend irl is chock full of IT support people
