I don’t care enough to do that. You’re quite literally autistic anyways, no one should’ve allowed you to have total autonomy over your body🤷🏽♀️
@mentis_NOVA
No, it’s supposed to be a joke, but the comments give you insight on how demeaning the joke is and how bad it would be to try and transplant a uterus into a male
Yes. You are trans enough to be transgender.
Fuck gatekeepers.
Can’t believe I have to say this in 2024.
There’s no test or checklist to “earn” being trans.
Try on the label, new pronouns, new name. Do whatever the hell you want, no matter how unsure you are.
I support you.
@KINGTHEMAIN
wow i wonder what intersex condition this TRA claims to have considering we haven’t discovered a true “intersex” condition, you must have a case study or something
so gender IS based on stereotypes? cuz all you’re saying is “she’s not a girl because she has a beard and bushy eyebrows, so she must be a man” which is a gender stereotype lmao
People also sexualise priests! Crazy! A lot of people handle their own religious trauma by exploring their sexuality through adult content about “forbidden” (church etc) things!
i really needed this 🥹 people say i’m not trans bc i was born female and identify as female, but…anyone can be trans! fuck transmeds!! y’all are valid as heck :)
@laubritter
Also unless I or someone else is sexualizing a real nun, a person who can potentially see it and feel violated, I dont have as much of an issue with it. Sexualizing nuns as a concept is different than sexualizing an actual nun.
@Hi_Tcity
even if you did manage to do a brain transplant without damaging the brain (which is currently impossible), the body’s immune system would attack the brain and cause a very painful death
“i don’t fully meet autism criteria but i’m gonna claim i’m autistic anyways!”
do these ppl not look into SCD, stereotypic movement disorder, schizoid/schizotypal pd, and ID? all of these are good differentials for someone with autistic traits
Autism isn't a disorder
Neuronormativity is a disorder
Those who seek to fix
What they deem inherently sick
Don't they see?
The misfit is really thee
Attempting to fix other's
The desire to cure other is your own
Projection
Normality is a death sentence
Stay woke

Autism is a difference of neurotype; it is NOT an illness & it is NOT a disorder. OCD is a disorder; it is serious & can be utterly disabling & have a devastating impact on lives. This is my personal reflection of some differences.

1. it was updated literally 2 years ago
2. there is literally an entire team dedicated to JUST the autism spectrum section of the DSM
3. they consulted autistic people for literal YEARS
4. there were autistic people on the neurodevelopmental team for making the autism criteria
@WolfWithAutism
@kladvocacy
the diagnostic criteria were devised on almost exclusively white male children and have been minimally updated since.
It has also been "defined" by "experts" who are none of them themselves autistic, and yet have created sweeping declarations of autistic ppl's inner lives
it’s bc the label of autism is popular. everyone wants to be autistic. SCD isn’t “cool” and it’s not officially on the autism spectrum, so no one wants the dx.
How many ppl get dx with SCD? It shares the social communication autism symptoms but lacks the RRBI dimension. Not aware of anyone dx with it, where are these ppl?
@prettycritical
Don’t comment on random out of context lyrics you see floating around on Twitter. This is literally the next lyric. The OP is spreading misleading information and turned off comments so people can’t correct them to farm engagement.
@CommunityNotes
needs to do something.
your symptoms have to disrupt your life in some way to be autistic. ALL autistics have at least some support needs bc that is a diagnostic requirement. if you don’t struggle at all then you’re not autistic lmao
@justDjeny
you said “gatekeep birth” and genuinely meant that, your opinion holds no value because that’s the stupidest fucking phrase i’ve laid my eyes on
knew someone i grew up with who self dx’d with autism even though they had NO history of social impairments and repetitive behavior. told them it was offensive as someone with pdd-nos and they said i was “ableist.”
i literally was nonverbal until i was 4…
i have just had a message from my daughter whos partner is dxed bpd telling me shes now been dx asd wtaf is going on in diagnostics no childhood history and trauma at 15 its fucking insane
Unless they are actually endangering your health, don’t remove your breasts. I’m not saying this in a trad wife way, genuinely as a society we have forgotten how serious surgery is. It’s a fucking MAJOR SURGERY.
@houasbinfarden
@No7Sammy
Im not trans but ive thought long and hard and once ive saved up my money im also getting my breasts removed. They're annoying big and they just get in the way and cause discomfort. Plus i dont like how i look with them.
noooo don’t connect the dots between transgenderism, gender essentialism and fervent misogyny, don’t even think about it— the song is just bad! no thoughts just cringe
This is why identifying autism as a difference, rather than diagnosing a disorder, would be such a significant shift.
We are autistic when we are not at crisis point, and knowing so could help prevent many of those crises.
telling someone that being obese is unhealthy and that junk food and large portions cause obesity is not “fatphobia”
it is reasonable to not want to be obese + yes bodies come in all sizes and some of those sizes aren’t healthy! 👍
no bc i can verify this is true, my “ex” was nonbinary and autigender and an “endogenic” system who self dx’d as autistic and poly who fucked my bully and got mad when i was upset and i put up with it for 5 YEARS 😭
@ActualGod
@zanier84018321
Consider why someone would pretend to have a baby and what the implications of a uterus transplant would be, and consider that women have been oppressed and mutilated for having a functioning uterus (menstrual huts, FGM)
nobody i’ve asked has been able to define what gender actually is without it being some sort of spiritual thing or something based in stereotypes. so i’ll ask again -
radfems, trans people, anyone - what the hell is gender???
Yeah, that post pissed me off. Levels of support aren’t functioning labels. And functioning labels objectively DO exist bc some autistic people are more “functioning” than others.
autism is not extremely common, as some ppl like to believe. i’ve seen ppl speculate that the “true” autism prevalence is 1 in 10 in america - no, some of y’all just truly do not have autism. the 1 in 46 estimate is probably the most accurate rn imo
literally y’all won’t accept ANYTHING from AS. if they advocate for women with autism you’ll freak out. if they advocate for people with severe autism you’ll freak out. i bet if they changed their logo you’d still freak out. also, THEY DON’T SHOCK AUTISTIC PEOPLE???
every day I come on this app and people tell me biology is fixed and immutable
my doc just told me I now have to get annual mammograms because HRT shifted me into the exact same genetic risks factors as my mom
you all talk so much shit, but you’re not in the conversation
“the n-word has to be the dumbest slur hill to die on. the concern that is supposedly hurts people of color, but words like colored, n*groes, non-whites, alligator bait, c**n, and monkey are just as hurtful yet when i call my white buddy a monkey it somehow isn’t a slur”
broke: gender is a social construct, therefore gender is a universe
woke: gender is a social construct designed to enforce strict gender roles and stereotypes that oppresses women and creates violent men; gender is not real and should be abolished
@rotten_werk
@wisptarion
most ppl express a desire for sex, the difference is that ppl don’t normally want to graffiti graphic images of ppl having sex in restrooms
considering the overlap between asperger’s and schizoid pd, these “autistics” might just have a different expression of szpd. szpd is already under researched as it is. it’s very likely these ppl are actually personality disordered
Transphobes think that all trans people must be unhappy. Here I am, a very happy trans person. There’s a thing called “trans joy,” and I experience it every single day. This is what trans joy looks like.
As you all know, I lived as a lesbian for almost 30 years before
yes. autism is usually diagnosed ages 2-6, “asperger’s” was diagnosed around ages 8-14 back when it was a thing. therefore i’d consider anything over 14 to be “late dx.”
@boobapologist
@ActualGod
Actually you can’t, the r-slur is only reclaimable for those with intellectual disability. Nice ableism though. Was that autism self diagnosed too?
autism has a neurological and genetic basis, we know what genes cause autistic traits and we also can see that neurons do not prune as they should in autistic children.
there is no “gay” gene and left-handedness is not a disorder. comparing autism to being gay is homophobic.
@autismquilt
Look into the history of both of those things after industrialisation started in the west.
Left handed were accused of being Satans minions & assaulted & physically restrained for using left hand, & being gay was considered a mental disease & satanic affliction. See also autism
@AHamberghini
@CatgirlAnarcho
Not quite! A demisexual person is only physically attracted to a person they've made a deep emotional bond to, meaning they're attracted to that person and that person specifically because of who they are instead of how they look.
not meeting the full dx criteria doesn’t mean you aren’t autistic, or shouldn’t claim an autistic identity. the dsm is outdated, and most diagnosticians cannot truly discern capacity or “functionality” (esp since autism is a dynamic disability.)
@emo_slore
@RealRaegus
no, they didn’t. but they’re men. they are not women. including men in the definition of woman means that 1. women can identify out of their oppression, and 2. anyone can be a woman, which literally destroys all feminist theory and endangers women’s protections
@emo_slore
@RealRaegus
we don’t “feel threatened,” we ARE threatened. muddying what “woman” means strips actual women of the legal rights and protections that we had to fight for
1. nobody is born with a fully functioning penis AND vagina as illustrated in what seems to be a children’s graphic novel
2. having “weird looking” genitalia (aka natural variations) is not “intersexuality”
honestly as someone with lower support needs the social model still doesn’t make sense. i struggle a lot even when accommodated. i think we should bring back the broader autism phenotype because your symptoms must interfere w your life to even be diagnosed as autistic
@autismquilt
Yeah because its an oversimplification. It's a better comparison with the lowest support needs autistics who do alright and would truly benefit from the social model. The higher the support needs, the shittier the comparison.
oh my god can you shut the fuck up about men, the original poster was talking about abortion and the 4b movement…what does that have to do with black men 😭
actually, asperger DID put them as personality disordered. “autistic psychopathy” was the original name, and in the 1940s psychopathy was a broad term for personality disorders (not schizophrenia, as many believe)!

don’t you dare bring disabled people into this lunacy, we were actually killed and trans people were literally legalized in n*zi germany 😐
I don't understand why not having your face on twitter is such a huge issue to some people. Even on Facebook 2/3 of my face is covered up with cats. No one cares about it. My pfp was auto-generated by Gmail. Why is it such an issue? Especially when internet safety is ignored
