It’s a common inside joke amongst SF-loving, programmer trans women that there are a lot of SF-loving, programmer trans women, or that trans women are especially and unusually common in those fields. But they usually don’t socialize with large swathes of other trans women who come unsorted by any other criterion save “trans and women”; I think this is an availability bias coupled with a bit of “I’ve found my tribe!” thinking.
