Through online anecdotal evidence and online communities, there is an in-group idea of trans people (specifically trans-feminine individuals) disproportionately entering computer science education & fields. Existing data suggests this is a plausible trend, yet no research has been done into exactly why. As computer science education (traditional schooling or self-taught methods) is integral to working in computer science fields, a simple research survey was conducted to gather data on 138 trans people's experiences with computer science & computer science education. This article's purpose is to shed insight on the motivations for trans individuals choosing computer science paths, while acting as a basis and call to action for further research.
翻译：通过在线传闻证据和在线社区,存在着跨行业者(特别是跨女性个人)进入计算机科学教育和领域比例过高的团体内想法。现有数据表明这是一个可信的趋势,但还没有研究确切原因。 由于计算机科学教育(传统学校教育或自学方法)是计算机科学领域工作不可或缺的组成部分,因此进行了一项简单的研究调查,以收集关于138个跨行业者在计算机科学和计算机科学教育方面的经验的数据。这篇文章的目的是深入了解跨行业者选择计算机科学途径的动机,同时作为进一步研究的基础和要求采取行动。
