It does. The autism community is super trans based now. I think it's the black and white thinking for the most part. Like being told "you have to feel like a woman" or "women do these things". It's especially noticeable in women I think because autistic women's social skills are closer to that of a neurotypical male, which means that a lot of autistic women are masculine or fit in with guys way better.

I agree. I find autistic people are really trusting. I can relate to feeling like “one of the boys” but not ever fully accepted by them as a girl, and that can easily be taken advantage of.
