A big enough post to warrant a thread, in relation to
A big chunk of it is energy levels & if you seek others out or the spotlight.
Cats generally don't invade your space & are loners only seeking out others if there's a need for something & the want for attention is minimal but dogs bound around into others personal space with no regards constantly seeking food which others mistake for affection & are prone to getting aggressive if they believe their food supply is in jeopardy; the owner or alpha is the food giver so they do not want anything competing for attention.
I see a similarity with ppl, autists are content doing their own thing separate to the hivemind minding their own business when along comes hyper NT social beast verbally assaulting the weirdo imposing their presence upon them. "Why are you different, what's wrong with you, LOOK AT ME, EYE CONTACT". Our body language & facial expressions are different to the norm like a second type of sign language that never went mainstream & so is misread. We attempt to be ourselves & are shot down, ridiculed & ignored if we're not Chad so we decide fuck this shit, I'm not getting much good out of these situations so we avoid them as much as possible. Aside from the hassle of other ppl we don't get invigorated with energy from others but instead become drained, basically the opposite reaction NT ppl get, notice how many NT ppl start going mad if they're in solitude.
In short NT needs interactions to charge up & loses charge in isolation.
Asd or introvert charges alone & drains in company.
I think a factor in this is we tend to put on a mask in company to hide our "faults" relating to asd & learned early on to hide it as it attracted the wrong attention & I find NT outgoing ppl love to chip away at the confidence & standing of anyone that is different through gaslighting & other means so you're essential trying to apply camouflage to your persona, this is very tiresome & sometimes doesn't even work as the disguise is bad so the easiest option is yo simply get the hell away from others that intend you harm one way or another.
If you're ugly you hope to at least have the social finesse to navigate interactions but we lack that on top of looks so like navigating a minefield without a map or metal detector things go awry, Chad of course doesn't have this issue as he can be himself without a care in the world thanks to his height & face.
The top content on r/autism rn is all about pets:
Reddit - Dive into anything
www.reddit.com
Autistic people gravitate towards pets in general because, just like them, pets are similarly subhuman (brutal).
And as for sex differences, two of the cat owners I've seen are foids, and one is a tranny. So cats are clearly feminine icons, representing surrogate children.
