I always think it's so funny that the old stereotypical gray haired man or neckbeard linux user got replaced by the new stereotypical transfem linux user. Now that there's less need to compile our own software there's more time to compile our own genders
If the stereotype is to be believed, why is this, do you think? Why would Linux and open source software attract such a disproportionately high number of transfrem individuals?
And would it be causative or is it or non-causative?
As the meme points out, Linux attracts the autistic crowd, and there have been some studies done that have found a correlation between autism and being transgender. Namely that people who are autistic tend to care less about gendered norms, and therefore are more likely to explore their own gender
yes, and. lets not forget this discussion is happening on lemmy. this place is just autistic as fuck. even those of us autist around here who are straight tend to be the ones who find most other straight people obnoxious. we've self sorted into an audiance that, as another comment hilariously points out. most of us probably know a genx neckbeard linux user who used to be really gumpy. but she's pretty chill and happy now.
