        Sorry if it came out wrong, it was just supposed to be fun. Of course I considered it happens both ways. And additionally, I don’t even understand why there’s so much of an overlap to begin with.

    My wife’s been on HRT for a couple of years, but she’s not interested in Linux, I’ve been using it for 20odd years. Not sure the pattern works. /s

    Obligatory mention that the old-school greybeard archetype still exists and I’d guess that more of those are gay than egg or hatching / hatched (UrbanDictionary is no help here, but I assume those are terms. If not, please extrapolate.)

    There may also be other archetypes not predisposed to needing HRT. I’m not sure what archetype Linus himself is, for example. The distinct lack of beard means he doesn’t quite fit greybeard, and it sure looks like he’s comfortable as he is.

    But it’s good to know that tech folks are now available in more stripes than the original stereotypes. It keeps the weirdy-beardies* who still live in musty wizard towers on their toes if they dare to come down.

    * I look in the mirror every day. I know what I see.

      I mean look, all of this is just good fun. Everything is just stereotypes and this should all be taken with a huge grain of salt. I don’t think there’s actually any correlation.

    Congrats on the 10 months! HRT is a godsend. No matter when you start, it’s always better to be yourself 🩷

    Sincerely,
    a fellow Arch user at 7.5 months HRT :3

    Lemme guess, another Arch Linux user?

    I say because I only know two people in my life who are transitioning or have transitioned, and both are Arch Linux users.
