Personally as an autistic I'm surprised no one addresses that issue. Not all autistic are lgb but many of them do interact with their world in non traditional ways. I myself am no exception. Growing up I loved games like contra and franchises like 🥷 🐢, running my toes in the mud under the swings after a rain. Yes gettin dirty. To a trans rights activist or wrong thinking school employee I might have been a prime candidate for puberty blockers, hormone blockers, and ultimately hormone replacement therapy. So lucky I grew up in the 80s and 90s. Yes many so called transgender are possibly asd but like an article posted pointed out we struggle to make friends and build our own version of a community. We're preyed upon like fresh roadkill at times. Seriously. Many of us view those in successful relationships whether is same sex or opposite sex as successful. Our parents seem thrilled if we master cooking and picking up after ourselves.
