How difficult is it to get an IT job in Denmark as a transwoman? (leddit.danmark.party)

I have over 30 years IT experience and in my mid-40s. I'm a US citizen living in Japan and considering a move to Denmark. I'm wondering how difficult it would be to find a job as an IT (cloud) Architect or software engineer while being an obvious transgender person. (I don't think I pass as a woman by a British mile.)

These people always talk about how "equal" everyone is and how "progressive" we are in Denmark, while having zero perspective on how difficult it is for trans people to live here. It's frustrating.

Maybe the difficulty you face is not because you are trans. Maybe it is because (as your post history shows) you choose to make a living as a furry sex entertainer on OnlyFans, and explicitly advertise your transness as a main feature of the channel.

Most Danes don't have a problem with trans people. But many would have a problem with that.

Even many other trans people would have a problem with that. Instead of showing everyone that trans people are normal people, you're playing into all the worst stereotypes about transness. The most far-right anti-trans nutballs like to scream that trans people are depraved sexual fetishists. Personally, I don't think that is true. But why are you playing into their narrative? They'll think it confirms they are right.
