I likely accidentally counted people twice or skipped someone, but regardless here's a general idea of the makeup of our population from the sample size of the post I made.

Also, it shortened transmasculine/feminine nonbinary on the graph.

I typed in the value for cis women as zero, and it didn't show up on the chart so keep that in mind.

There are tons of transmasc people online, just not on reddit/Lemmy. Let's be real the core userbase of this website seems to be programmers (I am not one, but I've had multiple people at this point tell me they are in unrelated discussions). I'm sure y'all know the sexism that comes with being a girl in comp sci. If you're living as a girl during high school/college age, it's harder and honestly just uncomfortable to sit through male-dominated classes where half your classmates don't respect you just due to your gender.

Yeah that's a good point. Lemmy userbase in general might be biased. Definitely feel bad for all the women genuinely interested in tech fields who have to put up with the sausage fest shenanigans.
