autistic focused sex education is my passion and my life's work

This guy must also be autistic if he doesn't know how creepy that sounds.

Recently I have started to see job adverts for teaching posts where they say things like “must have a passion for x” or “must be passionate about x” (x is usually literacy, special needs or maths, never sex education) and I bet that that is something that is appearing in other fields’ employment ads too. It’s no longer possible to simply say “I have a professional interest in x”, you have to act like it’s your religious calling…and it is weird. Very weird.

So it’s weird to describe yourself as having a “passion” for something, but it’s doubly weird for it to be about “sex education” and triply so for it to be about “sex education for autists”.

If I was interviewing someone and they told me that they had a “passion for x”, I’d ask them why….and they better have a very good reason or they’re getting shown the door.

Well, it makes perfect sense why they want it- they're trying for the "this is my dream job" factor, because employers know if this is what you dream of and it's all you've ever wanted to do, they can pay you as low as they want to because hey, what're you going to do, walk away from your life's dream and the one thing you're skilled at (guaranteeing it's this or McDonald's/Walmart forever)?

Because you can pay less for a passion than you do for experience and qualifications.

That's a brilliant insight.

Been that way in software development for at least 15 years.

There was also a trend of asking for "rock stars," "ninjas," and the like. Thankfully that seems to be fading. The concept of a "PHP assassin" or a "Microsoft Azure paladin" is too autistic for even computer programmers.

Teaching post ads in England (the other UK countries have their own Ed systems) are a particularly conservative thing, they all basically read alike as the job descriptions for most posts are identical. So it doesn’t surprise me that it’s taken a decade or more for the trend to hit.

Must havea passion for accounting.

For some of us it's cars, or sports, or maybe art... this guy wakes up on a Saturday all worked up to jack off Rain Man.

When wokeness loses power and influence, there should be something like Nuremberg trials for those grooming teachers and doctors. No benefit of the doubt, every sane mind knows these operations are vile and extremely harmful to kids. They should throw them doctors and their propagators off the roof one by one.

I expect a lot will, very vocally, jump ship as the tide begins to turn and act like they’ve been against it all along. There will be zero consequences for anyone involved, zero.

One of the doctors pushing for child transition now in the US was also pushing for recovered memories and satanic abuse in the 90s. She's jumped more ships than a Somali.

70% of autistic folks are LGBTQ+ and 50% of that population is trans or gender non-conforming

I broke my ‘F’ key doubting that.

It's backward. 70% of LGBTQ+ folks are autistic.

(This is not a real stat, either, please don't quote me on it.)

Compensate them for their time? (By their math they need $10-$50 per person)

If this is so important surely THEY could take a paycut 💜

Also, isn't it scary so many autistic people have been suckered into this? I wouldn't brag about those stats 🤣

When you're running a cult, autistic people are tutorial mode for how to lure people into it.

I had a look at their Facebook page. Lots of posts telling kids that they're 'unsafe' in homes where they're not 'affirmed', making antisemitism about themselves, and Wilson Cruz (who is a board member) acting like a fucking groomer.

One of us needs to code a bot that replies "what does the '+' stand for that the 'LGBTQQIAA2P' doesn't already include?" to this kind of post. I'm sorry I don't know how.
