Plays into the autism/ADHD as a superpower narrative instead of the "some people like sex some don't" narrative, pass.

[–] captainlezbian 7 points 2 months ago

Some people like sex, others don’t. People with autism/adhd often find ourselves in positions where we’re comfortable violating social norms, whether that’s deciding that you’d actually rather spend all your time on electrical engineering and pigeons instead of having a family, or being a bum who can’t stick with a job long enough to have consistent housing but also lacks the impulse control to not pursue all the sex they want.
