Use facial expressions is a big one for me . I’m very expressive but can’t read other people’s emotions or pick up social cues or etc. lack of expressiveness is one of the big symptoms I don’t exhibit

Fr I’m so good at reading social cues but it’s just because I learned when I was younger due to always missing cues and feeling embarrassed 😭

There’s a stereotype that autistic people look ugly/ don’t groom ourselves. So it means we can look hot

Yeah but the stereotype is we are genuinely gross. Like yes attractiveness is subjective but unclean is not attractive. Or that we dress like 5 year olds. Both objectively not attractive things. Don’t know why you’re making this into something

Then don’t respond to me if it wasn’t for me? I was just answering your question and you genuinely could not grasp why I was saying clearly

i apologize for being a little literal but there’s no reason to be sarcastic about it.

Oh my god 🤦‍♀️ because someone changed this list. Like the original photo wasn’t about autism the header was changed too. That is common sense I fear

that obviously wasn’t clear to me 🤔 clearly i missed something but instead of being all sarcastic about it, maybe try stating that in a less judgmental way?

Mmkay here it goes: it’s just a list. Clearly just a list. I answered your question and you still couldn’t process it. Can’t help you if you can’t help yourself

Brodie they’re just autistic and didn’t get the joke. They’re not being malicious or anything so I’d say just drop it. Let them live

This is ableism, #6. Not everyone will have the same capabilities to understand jokes, sarcasm, or humor as you do. What seems like common sense to you may not be to another autistic individual (as autism commonly can affect this). #4 was only trying to ask clarifying questions.
