I can make the connections for computer science, but how the hell does welding attract da queerness? (And how the hell did my phone autocomplete that sentence?)
My somewhat unfounded opinion is that living as part of a marginalized group, subject to different rules (legal or social,) makes one question rhe validity of all rules. Marginalized and intersectional people wouldn’t be as interested in following convention in the first place.
Add to that, a push to get more women into trades where the gender divide is greater, with assistance that recognizes the increased difficulty for women to get into those fields.
