I don't have ASD, but my presumption is that it would be frequently diagnosed in the incel community.
Whatever little general knowledge i do possess also indicates to me that its largely a male problem.
i have seen a plethora of psychology videos on youtube now claiming that it affects females as well, but "differently" and that the research to date has been very sexist and only focused on men.
it seems as if they want to reject the idea of a spectrum of social functionality and apply a blanket label of autism and claim a mass misdiagnoses/non-diagnoses among females.
I have a theory that this might be absolute garbage. the behavior characteristics that are claimed seem to be more akin to social laziness and general manipulative behavior (getting other people to do things for them). I have a feeling that this also might have something to do with the overwhelming majority of females in psychology associations and decision making bodies. (remember the APA and toxic masculinity?)
it not so much the fact that they claim that it affects girls more that research indicates thats worrisome, but the fact that they claim that women are affected in "different ways" which don't really seem to be socially limiting. I also come across "women learn to normalize themselves because they develop faster and better than males". Its almost like they're saying "im a victim, but im not a victim but my victim hood is more of a struggle than any other boys victimhood"... this seems a lot more like femininininism than psychology.
I would like to know more about this.... or am i off the bat completely?
