Actually, what are some stereotypical transfem jobs? I’ll make a poll later.

Can you think of other options than :

  • Programming
  • Other engineering (not programming)
  • Visual arts/drawing
  • Music
  • Writing
  • Public transport
  • Body modding
  • Barista (suggested by @frawst)
  • Sex work (suggested by @LucieLazerEyez)
  • Influencer

Okay here it goes! The extremely reductive transfem job poll. ​boost_ok Boost for more sample size

TRANSFEMS ONLY, what do you for a living? Either part-time or full-time, but has to be something that brings a decent amount of your income (not a hobby)

Multiple choices allowed!

Sorry if I forgot something but I reached the max options count

@bl00d I’ve met lots of transfems who do body modding but often they were the less techy type, so maybe they’re just not on fedi. This isn’t a representative slice of the transfem population after all

@iro_miya true, fedi is a very specific social circle. I'm just shocked that it is so far at 0

@iro_miya @bl00d well, you also specified “for a living”. i think bodyboding usually doesn’t pay as much

@green @iro_miya it pays enough to live further. The money also heavily depends on the rep and body mods you offer

@iro_miya i work at a gas station overnight you kinda missed that 'general laborer' category cause i dont think its particularly special work.

but i guess a lot of fedi users arent general laborers so.
