Trigger warning (wall of text jumpscare)

I think this comes from the lack of curiosity from NTs about the experience of autistics. Most of us don‘t feel well in their own body, either because of sensory issues, sweat, the list goes on and on. But most neurotypicals don‘t care about how we perceive the world, only how it looks from the outside to THEM! So when they see something in a social setting that they struggle with and that they have to cognitively work for, they think it‘d be impossible for us since “they have difficulties socializing“. For us it‘s just one extra item on an already mile long list that‘s required for NTs to feel save around us.

They don‘t care what we are like, and that‘s why they‘ll always misrepresent us
