Lately I’m hearing a lot of buzz about autistic folks being a major part of trans mental illness.
Where have you you seen this? After the Nashville murderer was reported to be “on the autism spectrum”, and several prior mass shooters were autistic transgender cases, I started to wonder about an autism-transgender connection. Cogitation isn’t scientific proof, but since autism often involves high intelligence but problems with empathy, sense of self, and ability to connect “normally” with others, sufferers likely self-perceive as “misfits”, and might seek explanation and relief in transgenderism. Those hopes are likely dashed, after the “transitioning” damage is done, but the autism remains.
Medical practitioners who do not address mental illness before irrevocably altering their patients’ bodies and hormones are committing a serious wrong.
