You’re right, and it definitely could be. But the cutesy faux male names is classic female behavior as is the industrial strength narcissism that I’m seeing from them. Plus, I think liberal arts colleges are mostly female now. And what dude decides to study ceramics in university in an artistic capacity as opposed to something like material science?
I've noticed that too, or something similar. Usually men are more likely to ((comically)badly) impersonate women. Bruce Jenner, William Thomas, Jonathan Yaniv, Richard Levine, whatever the "It's ma'am!" guy's name is.
All the theys and thems and xe-xi-xo-xums I've run into have been chromosomally XX. Abigail Shrier touches on this in "Irreversible Damage" when talking about adolescent girls wanting to be "something in the middle." I could speculate as to why but whatever the reason, it's less common to see women impersonating the opposite gender than it is to see them trying to pretend that there's some kind of "both and neither" option C. Yes, there's Ellen Page, but she seems to be an outlier.
In schools and university? It is mostly driven by females. I saw a report last year that said females reporting gender dysphoria was up 600% in schools (or something like that).
That part of it is definitely a social contagion that is trickling down into wider culture.
There's a bit of leftist projection that's worth quoting here:
"When You're Accustomed to Privilege, Equality Feels Like Oppression"
I’m betting that both “Danny” and “Teddy” are shes.

In wider society? Yes MtF is more common.
