Research indicates that individuals with ASD are more likely to experience gender dysphoria, and vice versa.

    Like 80% of teens could now be evaluated as being on some spectrum of autism.

    You dont get to talk about autism unless you are autistic, bigot. (Even then you would only get to talk about YOUR autism. Stop spreading these baseless, cookie cutter right wing talking points that dont help anyone.

    But imagine if mental health professionals made up some word for everyone that got tattoos, saying they had skin dysphoria.

    Imagine you shutting your face about other people‘s skin, identity, mental health and decisions. Typical right wing obsession with overstepping other people‘s boundaries. I understand you have never learned them and grew up in a world where you were told your and other‘s boundaries dont matter. That does not give you the right to do it to others.

    Or imagine if they actually did their job & identified most Christians in America as mentally ill & prone to delusions.

    Classical false equivalence used to drive misinformation and abusive speech. Religious people around the world are not your enemy. It is their choice to believe in what they want. As you show well, being religious and an overstepping abusive dick is not connected.

        Right? What an insane take.

        Guess I’m not allowed to help children on the spectrum learn daily living skills, or teach language skills to kids who communicate by injuring themselves.

        Another bigot. Thanks for showing yourself. Blocked.

        Of course academics make research but anyone in good faith knows that this was not about research but a bigot trying to dump on people finally finding out about themselves.
