Don’t worry. I mean nothing but humour by it. I myself am married to a physicist who takes absolutely no interest whatsoever in programming, but can talk happily for ages about something weird they found.
There are those who transition, so a significant chunk of that male programmer population is “male” as in quotation marks, only that some transition earlier than others. Does not guarantee that you can get the transgender autistic puppygirl (or other variations) of your dreams, since many of them are lesbians.
But also feel free to look outside your field for a partner. It’s okay to date an artist as a programmer.
It’s odd in the Australian public service, with COBOL programmers. They’ve been in the job long enough that they started when the public service was the only employer who would employ women as programmers. I’m on the systems analyst side of the fence, the programmers I have worked with include a bit more than 60% women
I think all the programmers I know are married or gay or not interested. I think the gay ones are mostly married too.
There are far more male programmers… As a programmer, be gay or stay alone… Choose!
Oh that explains why my wife is gay
If she was around the same cs students as me then yeah
Ouch!
She sleeps with men, that’s pretty gay
There are a lot of things she does but that aint one of them
Think you forgot to check their username before commenting that haha
Thats a hell of a way to find out.
And clearly it worked!
Can programmers only be with other programmers or am I missing something?
“JSON parser 100% from scratch in Haskell in 110 lines” doesn’t get you horny? I guess some people are just wired differently.
I’m a programmer myself but my wife isn’t a programmer, that was my motivation for questioning.

Oh, is she, like, an EE or something? Maybe a web designer?
But you kind of have to leave the house for that… I mean… We talk about programmers…

Well yeah, obv. But not enough girls in computer science, so like the fishes, some of them magically turn into girls after a while.

I think programmer should be seen as a gender itself.
I’m currently transitioning myself, already have a homeserver and a Linux PC, can’t wait to be a real programmer.
I detransitioned from being a programmer and all I have is depression since, maybe I should retransission into being a programmer
and gender confirmation would not be getting called sir/ma’am at the starbucks but people asking you for IT help?
Just slurs, shouted angrily and incoherently whike they blame you for all the shit that was designed (by someone else) to not work.
Feels weird reading this as the only single woman programmer in my friend group who likes men
It’s not gay if I’m wearing programming socks.
