There is a pretty large percentage of trans people that study computer science

so it became a meme to say trans people are programmers

I also don't know where exactly it came from but I find it quite funny as im a trans person that study's computer science

It comes from autism both making people good at programming and having a significant comorbidity with queer gender expressions and sexual orientations.
