  • I saw a thread asking why there’s so many transfems on lemmy compared to transmascs, I imagine this might be helpful:

    if we take a field that is generally more popular with men than women, for a wildly exaggerated example let’s say there’s a 100:1 ratio. 100,000 men and 1,000 women.

    When we factor in that 0.5% of the population is trans it turns to 250 transfems and 2.5 transmascs (using 0.25% for each)

    Now ~25% of women are transfem, but only ~0.003% of men are transmasc.

    (provided everyone’s transition happens after you joined lemmy, this isn’t a perfect theory.)

    Or that queer people are more likely to challenge the status quo when issues arise than cishet people so changing to Linux is aken to an act of resistance. Or it’s just a trend and I could be overthinking it🤷‍♀️
