Comment on Is this true? Software companies had diversity quotas to meet, and realized it was easier to turn autistic men into women than it was to turn women into software engineers

I understand why people are downvoting you, and this could have been phrased better, but you nonetheless raise an interesting point about the seeming prevalence of transfeminine software developers on Lemmy (as a transfeminine autistic programming enthusiast myself). I don’t think it’s a representation of the software development industry as a whole, but rather a specific community of people on Lemmy.

And yeah, bringing up terms like ‘diversity quotas’ and ‘turning men into women’ is going to make you sound like a conservative, who the Lemmy community is not very friendly towards.
