Next to me are two young-ish (30ies?) male presenting persons. They seem to be from the same company, and it seems it is a tech company (not software, just tech).

One of them is a tech person and the other one seems to be non-tech (job/position) – guessing from their laptops and what they do with their laptops, as well as from their outfit: the non-tech one wears dark gray jeans (business jeans), white shirt and a dark blue jacket, so something you'd call "business casual".

The tech person wears a brown sweater and a pair of dark blue jeans.

And I asked myself which one I would expect to come out as trans, if I had to choose.

The answer: the tech one!

Why?

I don't think it is because most trans people I know are tech (which is a large group, but not majority), but because it is easier for us trans people to "hide" in tech than in say marketing, sales, management, etc. And the tech person really looks more as someone who prefers to be hidden than be in public.

Add to that that most of us are neurodivergent, then you can see why I'd expect the tech person to come out as trans - if one of them were to come out as that.

Ada-Lynn Jules, Mx de Pompadour, agrees with me as they rather look at the tech person than the other one. Mind you, both are nice and kind, that's not the point here. It is just some musings, nonsense to say.
