So I'm an autistic sub5 gymcel myself and there's this young dude at my gym who's like facially a high 3 low 4/10 and he also facially has this autistic "look" to him which I've come to be able to spot pretty easily and my suspensions were confirmed when I overheard him talking about his train set he has in his room
But anyways he is in pretty decent shape and lifts pretty heavy doing weighted pull ups effortlessly and doing deadlifts with a belt around his waist, like you can tell he's far from a novice as far as weightlifting is concerned, but despite that I keep finding my own brain reacting to seeing him lifting and being kinda cut in a weird way, I can't control the way my mind reacts to seeing him at all it's like completely automatic and uncontrollable but it's basically just this perception that makes it look strange to me somehow, I wouldn't say it specifically feels like I'm thinking "he's trying too hard, obviously compensating", the best way I can describe it is like seeing someone with down syndrome being heavily involved in rap and thug culture, they both clash heavily so it just looks weird...
I know it's pretty brutal and makes me look like a judgemental POS but keep in mind I literally have no control over this feeling about seeing him doing his big deadlifts, I don't choose to have these thoughts when seeing him it's just something my brain automatically does, I've tried really hard to voluntarily override it many times whenever he's in but I catch my brain reacting the same way every time, even though I'm autistic and at the same time feel empathy and some kind of respect for him
If im autistic myself and even I catch my brain reacting to him lifting in this way, just imagine how fucking bad it must look to NT's if you're an autistic gymcel
