I saw a post about being conventionally attractive and autistic and I'm not discounting their experience at all just wanted to make my own post
Being unattractive and autistic means being perceived frequently as "creepy" even when you're not doing anything creepy at all, it's people being terrified of you having a crush on them, it's feeling bad for even having a crush on someone because you don't want to do that to another person, it's (for me) never dating at all.
What are your experiences?
TW: sexual assault.
Honestly, I get tired of it. It feels like rich people complaining that they are constantly losing their stuff in their big house. Well, yeah that is a problem, but as someone who is barely making it financially, I don't really want to hear that.
It comes off as bragging almost.
Honestly, autism is hard. We are all struggling. But saying that your life is harder because you are pretty so people give you free things and are nice to you reflects some serious perspective issues.
And all that stuff about being sexually assaulted because you are pretty tends to piss me off. Nobody should be sexually assaulted, and I am sorry that that happened. However being less attractive doesn't protect people from sexual assault.
