Asides from being tired, it's also problematic for the same reason that "I identify as an attack helicopter" is problematic. Assuming that all programmers/gamers/whatever are male is an actual problem, and the humor in "did you just assume my X" jokes are that people who get mad about the issue are annoying or wrong or a symptom of PC culture run amok. The joke can come across as transphobic. I'm sure you didn't mean it that way, but it's worth keeping in mind.
