Same with girls being autistic! “Only boys are autistic” was the refrain I heard as a fairly clearly autistic girl. Because I wasn’t allowed to get away with things, clearly I’m fine! Ignore the breakdowns over specific clothing, the overwhelming hatred of injustice, and a complete inability to understand social chores cues, totally fine!
