Maybe it's more like the weirder people are pushed away from things they find awkward. They're pushed to the easiest alternative. Social cues come into play; males are cued that technology is acceptable for them, females are cued that it isn't. More transgendered people than cisgendered people may not identify with those gender-based social cues, and disregard them.

What are those social cues? I don't know, in general. In my case, my father used the computer much more than my mother did. He built and maintained it. "Computer people" in the late 80s and early 90s were almost all male. My grandfather taught me, but not my sister, about electronics and soldering. My sister certainly played computer and video games, but not nearly as much as me or my brother.

I can't back the statement right now and do not even remember where I read it, but I do remember reading that autism spectrum women (who are rarer than autism spectrum males) tend to be drawn to fantasy setting and express themselves in fan fiction far more often. It would be interested to see the gender breakdown in fan fiction and related interests.
