>The entire tech industry in general is styled towards men

There is a huge space between "not styled explicitly towards women" and "styled towards men". The vast majority of the backpacks available are in that space.

I will grant that there are more backpacks designed to appeal to young men of a certain mindset than there are to appeal explicitly to women.

And let's face it, it doesn't matter what color you make it, once you build it for a 15+ inch laptop and assorted heavy stuff it's going to be shaped heavily by the reality of needing to be X x Y x Z in size, capable of carrying N amount of weight, and it's a *backpack*, not a cute little purse with two shoulder straps.

OTOH, women *are* built different than men (at least so as I've noticed) and when you get into packs designed for long distance and heavy loads getting one that fits the female form better is worth it. However at the range you're asking about I'm not sure that is necessary unless you're more than one standard deviation to the left when it comes to height.

There are also very few packs that are designed to carry two laptops. The only one I could find is https://www.tombihn.com/collections/laptop-bags/products/brain-bag?variant=50805978823, and it's a HELLA nice pack. Not pink, not even vaguely feminine. The thing is that not very many in the tech industry carry two laptops on a regular basis and most who do find a *sturdy* backpack get a sleeve for your second laptop.

Note that if you opt for the Bihn pack (and they make *good* packs) you should talk to them about how to get the second laptop in there.

Also consider how far you're going to have to carry this--if you're going to be marching through airports, or walking a long distance as part of your commute your shoulders will be much happier at the end if you get a pack with a decent hip belt (not "waist strap". Hip belt. If you're just riding a train you can take the pack off and put it on your lap or the ground.

The trick to this is to tighten the hip strap at the *top* of the hips, then loosen the shoulder straps just enough to move *most* of the weight to your hips, without loosening it so much that it messes with your shoulders--might take a while to get right.

North face makes this: https://www.thenorthface.com/shop/borealis-classic-cf9c?variationId=V0G#hero=0 with a hip belt, and it comes in Red, which is kind of a intense pink. It also comes in purple. Amazon has this in many different colors https://www.amazon.com/North-Face-Womens-Borealis-Backpack/dp/B071NL7RFY or at least they list different colors--some are out of stock.

Eagle Creek makes this https://www.amazon.com/Eagle-Creek-Companion-40L-Mulituse-17in/dp/B078X4MPT8/ which may be way overkill for your needs. It's in a nice blue color. Eagle Creek makes pretty robust stuff.

This is a nice looking pack https://www.amazon.com/Arcido-Akra-Backpack-Carry-Removable/dp/B07D3Z2N6Y with a good hip belt. It has a very elegant and streamlined look. A bit pricey, but good reviews.

I've been using a Jansport Odesssy as a travelling backpack for the last 4 years. I carry a 15 and a 11.6 inch laptop in it--but the smaller one is an "educational" laptop and is sort of semi-ruggedized, so I don't even put it in a sleeve usually. Jansport seems to make it in two colors every year--black and something else. This year that "something else" is "arctic camo", which would be the "styled towards men". https://www.jansport.com/shop/en/jansport-us/backpacks/odyssey-backpack-t14g
