Autism as a gender

Post Reply New Topic

Because I want nothing to do with people who hold such extremist views and purposely withhold free speech, such as what happened with J.K Rowling and that woman. And without even basing such events as those on facts but just opinion and emotionally charged responses. The views of such people are so outrageous and I want nothing to do with them, just as I want nothing to do with incels. They can keep autism well out of their horrendous tactics and f*ck off. I find it very offensive that anyone could even suggest autism is anything to do with such an extremist group of people.

I wasn't aware that any of the autistic gender people were extremists. If they are then that's not good. I don't tend to read a lot about these topics because I find gender very confusing myself and the anger about it quite scary.

Reminder that this is the LGBT+ forum. While topics like this are naturally going to incite debate, there is a line between “debate” on one side and “vitriol and bigotry” on the other side.

Ultimately this is autistic people saying that they are autistic. I can understand how linking it to gender could provoke a strong emotional reaction, but take a deep breath and wait a few minutes before saying that you find people talking about autism and gender to be offensive.

I could perhaps understand how someone could argue that gender expression could be influenced by such things. However, regarding whether it could be a gender category in itself, I personally do not think it is applicable or necessary. Since non-binary already communicates that the individual does not view themselves as strictly male or female.

Generally, I see male / female / both / changes periodically or identifies as neither to be gender categories. When it comes to more abstract concepts of gender such as relating it to an object or psychological condition, I find them to be unnecessary additions that don't really apply.

I haven't read the whole discussion, so I don't know if you will be surprised, but...


The women had pure pleasure, without interference. But something found it curious to see this place unspoiled. So there was a little "taste": the virus was installed. Things began to gradually degrade... then transmute into something better than the original: autism was born.


A gender always generate other genders. It's always been like that.

au·tism /ˈôˌtizəm/ (n): A developmental disorder of variable severity that is characterized by difficulty in social interaction and communication and by restricted or repetitive patterns of thought and behavior.

gen·der /ˈjendər/ (n): Either of the two sexes (male and female), especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones.  The term is also used more broadly to denote a range of identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female.

There is no conflation between the two definitions.  Any such conflation is solely in the minds of those who want to justify their gender-fluidity as a sub-form of autism.

Keep in mind that if gender-fluidity is a sub-form of autisim, then it is a treatable condition, and not just an aspect of their sexuality.

From what I can observe, the context 'autism' isn't the (social/communication/emotional) condition itself.
But more, like, gender expressions version more about alexithymia than dysphoria. 'No words for gender' -- what name would that be?

Why the heck not find more words for the unidentifiable?


Perhaps even more on terms of 'nonlinear' (being too incoherently different to compare and contrast, except towards anything comparable and contrastable) one that does and does not equate binary and nonbinary genders.

In other words, it shouldn't be named as 'autism', but something like, say, 'absurd' or 'dada'.
Because either current known words are unreliable or current just beyond the current paradigms' comprehension.
