    How are trans men excluded from tech?

    (Not trolling, genuinely asking. N.B. I am a stealth trans man in tech.)

      I assume they are referring to the perception that some (most?) trans men are raised with the social pressures & expectations put on girls and women, and thus whatever social forces that discourage cis women from being in tech also discourage trans men from being in tech?

      There’s a lot to unpack there and plenty of ways it paints an inaccurate picture, but I assume that’s the gist of it.
