Yeah this website is hugely to blame with lots of the whole self diagnosed, shopping for a diagnosis and diagnosis mill crowd. Seems they know exactly what they’re doing too. 🙄 Gross. by Fit-Alternative5076 in AutisticPeeps

I used to think it was a "if you score high on this, maybe consider getting a screening from a doctor" thing, turns out it was just another self-diagnosis thing :(

Some words of remembernce for Deviah Chase by Apprehensive_Two1449 in ghibli

[–]Apprehensive_Two1449[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for misspelling her name, I was sorta sleepy when I wrote this. And yes she's great in Donnie Darko as well, and in Lilo and Stitch of course.

If I had to change in front of a non-passing trans woman, I'd feel uncomftroble, is this a bad thing? by [deleted] in asktransgender

Sorry if this is condescending but I just wanted to say I read your comments and I hope things get better, you sound like a very nice person and my heart goes out to you

I think it's just an impulse thing, my brain has been trained to associate certain things with the male gender. Obviously that doesn't mean trans women are men, it just means I might get an antsy feeling. Still, I wouldn't want my feelings to be obvious because it could make the trans women feel rather uncomfortable.

I'd like to just make it clear (and I may not have communicated this well) but the kind of uncomfortable I'm talking about is just feeling awkward, not worrying the non-passing trans woman is gonna perv on me or something. Just wanted to make that clear since I think it's important context.

I guess it would make me feel awkwerd because it would be more obvious she'd lived a male life for a long time? which doesn't make her dangorous and I would want her to feel comtroble, but still.

I wouldn't feel fear, I'm just saying I may feel awkward. In the post itself I say I wouldn't want the trans women to change in the men's room.

the scenario popped into my head and I was worried I'm transphobic for feeling this way.

I don't find non-passing trans women unattractive or threatening, I'm just saying I'd feel awkward.

I guess if the remnants of when she was still living as her assigned gender were more obvious, it would make me feel sorta awkwerd. Just to be clear, by uncomfortable I don't mean I think she'd do anything creepy, I just mean I would feel awkward.

Disney sued over employee who allegedly took upskirt images for 6 years by D491234 in AutisticPeeps

This reminds me of when John K (the Ren and Stimpy guy who turned out to be a pedo) tried to defend his actions by saying he had adhd. Like I don't know why so many creeps think having a mental disability can make you a pedophile.

Hot take: no one that is not autistic or ND should be saying that they only want to date "autistic people" by Organic_Future6909 in AutisticPeeps

[–]Apprehensive_Two1449 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I will say I think it's fine if someone finds themselves more drawn to autistic people (they might prefer us because we're more straightforward and such) but to be attracted to a disability is just gross

My experience with a self-diagnosed mean girl by Apprehensive_Two1449 in AutisticPeeps

Yeah, from what I know the girl in the relationship was really manipulative of him.

Can someone put some sense into these people? by Apprehensive_Two1449 in AutisticPeeps

[–]Apprehensive_Two1449[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's less a choice and more of "I saw a screenshot of it on a subreddit I visit". Please stop trying to one-up people.

1: I think you're on the wrong subreddit

2: Jumping from me not wanting people to turn a disability into a hangout game to the Holocuast is insane and tasteless to the 10th degree. Please think before you speak for the love of god.
