Lol, did they just compare transgender identity disorder to autism?

There's a huge overlap, so it's not even that crazy.

As for curing autism, those who actually suffer from it would benefit from a cure. What's the controversy?

I don't disagree. If an autistic person would benefit from a cure, it should be made available to him. Some autistic people benefit from their condition, but those people are the exceptions that prove the rule. Autism is a disability.
