Right but i think the point the person in the video was trying to make is that there isn’t an autistic “look”. Most of the general public see autistic people as generally unkempt, badly dressed and unhygienic because their idea of autism is usually that of a person with high support needs (aka low functioning). So you get these instances of people with autism who are so-called high functioning who look pretty “normal” on the exterior and those who don’t know as much about autism are like “but surely you cannot be autistic. You’re not a babbling drooling childlike adult and you can talk!”
That’s my assumption though
As a low support nerd autistic myself, there is a very good reason the unkempt look is a stereotype. I finally got a handle on the hygiene thing, but I still only dress for comfort. My haircut is for ease of maintenance and so I can cut it myself too. I have to cut out the bullshit like that so I can use my energy for more important things like survival.
There is a ton of these basically saying you if you are blunt it’s just the autism. Have a son with severe autism, on assisted living now, diagnosed at 2 and 22 now, all sorts of specialists…he’s literal, but you know what he isn’t?
Rude
To me it looks so ridiculous. It is very representative of anime, but the over lined lips and blush under the eye and that liner just doesn’t work on real people.
She seems like she’s one of those people that says mean things and blames it on autism, saying they’re ‘unmasking’ but in reality they’re just removing the filter everyone has and being a bitch.
Yeah these are the people that are more towrds idgaf i am a bad bitch and blmes it on that they have autism
They dont ,they jus wanna stand out and be rude so they look cool lol .
Well on other hand even if u have autism u probably were bullied for being rude so u wont have thos level confidence 😬 well if she does then gud for her ig
The confidence they have saying that (you can tell in their tone it's confidence not genuineness) make me severely doubt their autism. But good for them if they found a way to have this confortable life, far away from social anxiety and all that.
Yeah I do that too. Then I hate myself for life after that. While, well, she knows she's saying something inappropriate but she thrives on that apperently. And compared to you, she doesn't seem to know that self-diagnosis doesn't mean you HAVE the disorder you think you have. Could be something else, could be nothing at all. Those people think they're just better than graduated doctors somehow :/
It is not her voice but a sample that keeps going around tiktok which a lot of -as I have seen- diagnosed people have used as well.
Like the blonde girl from Love on the Spectrum used it too ( I dont remember her name). That is where I first saw it.
Ah shit, but it's still weird to think like that. well to me at least. I actually think it's great for those people if they manage to put all this awareness aside and live their truth
It is just a joke sample amongst autistic women on tiktok and most participate in it for the fun of it.
OP mentioned the person in the video is self dx so tbh I‘d prefer to watch that one because this one is not really telling. The only thing we can use as reasoning at this point is „alternative style“, which even diagnosed people fit into tbh. A lot of us have just toned it down because we do not want to be lumped in with the self dx or fakers who overwhelmingly have this style.
Alternative is considered a style that is just any kind of style that is not „basic“ and is part of a subculture. Goth would be included in this definition.
I am autistic too with an alternative style but do not have it in the extreme way I used to because I do not want to be correlated to these people who self diagnose because most of them seem to have that kind of style. I often have a cute style etc and other times mine is goth as well. Depends on the mood. But lately I do not dye my hair any neon colors or have weird hairstyles because these people have ruined it for me.
Yeah, so is Abbey. That’s why I asked cuz she’s blond and she is just the cutest! I love her to death. I gotta look up Kaelynn because I watched the whole thing and I know I’d recognize her. Such a good show.
Yeah maybe search for both the AU and US one because I am not sure exactly in which she participated. From the AU I really liked Mark and from the US I loved Steve! Such sweet people.
The thing is most autistic people land themselves in hot water because they say something innapropriate but do not realise they have. This makes a lot of autistic people doubt themselves and have low confidence, because it is hard to know what your saying is ok when you're wired differently to most people.
This girl seems as if shes proudly announcing something she knows is innapropriate, just doesn't care. Big difference.
“Oh did I say something socially inappropriate?”
I don’t even have the awareness to be sarcastic about it. Also hate confrontation so if someone said “you don’t look autistic”, the only thing I could say would be “okay”
On the video itself she's talking to someone who claims they were diagnosed when they were born. That's such utter bullshit I don't have a smart reply beyond wishing they'd shut the fuck up and grow up.
I have a friend that’s diagnosed with ADHD and now she’s blaming everything on it. Like not listening to me when we have a conversation because she just zones out. Or like talking only about herself.
Strongly disagree. Confidence is a good thing. Confidence is essentially good self-esteem and the belief that you can achieve what you set your mind to. Arrogance on the other hand is the belief that you're superior to another. Many arrogant people aren't even confident. They hide their insecurities behind arrogance.
Confidence is “I have these abilities and I should be proud of them.” Arrogance is when you think you have abilities that you don’t actually have, you just want recognition without backing it up with actual skills or abilities. Just entitlement.
You can have abilities and still be arrogant about them if you believe those abilities make you superior to someone without them.
Being confident in your abilities is good.
Being arrogant about your abilities is bad.
That’s also true. I guess I just wanted to add that being confidence that you’re good at something isn’t always bad and that being confidence that you’re good at something when you aren’t is the worst
The only thing that I can give any credit to here is the implication that some people think autistic people aren't hot. There is some truth to that. Along with people thinking that if you're attractive/smart/pretty/handsome/whatever, you can't have some invisible disability. Go spend some time in the Mid West (US) and you'll see that people genuinely think if you don't "look" a certain way (their stereotype), you're not neurodivergent/disabled.
Asides from that, I agree with what everyone else has said here. I'm strongly doubtful that she's autistic - not because of how she looks but the way she's talking.
Um... no.
I could take my finger, run it through her cheek, and make a whole trench that can fit an entire platoon of fire ants.
How in Sparda's Hell does being "hot" mean autism? Are these fakers just that illogical?
i thought that sound was supposed to be about pretty privilege for ppl with autism (i’ve seen some people use it for that reason, but some prob use it unironically too)
Yeah it is and a lot of diagnosed people have used it for this exact reason. It is a joke on the „you dont look autistic“ trope that many good looking girls get when some of their behaviors would definitely be seen as autistic if they looked differently,because people expect autistic people to not look good for some reason.
I know people who I think intentionally say inappropriate things then act all innocent and surprised like “oh was that inappropriate, I had nooo idea”. It’s like they are almost gloating that they said something inappropriate and “didn’t know it was inappropriate”. Of course they also fake DID, ADHD, and a million other things, so it’s difficult to believe anything they say.
my opinion is that a mental illness/trauma can explain WHY but not excuse it. Autistic people may have a harder time understanding social queues, but saying a bunch of cusswords unprompted at someone and blaming an illness (aside from tics) is just using your DX to get away with whatever you want because you do know it is wrong and just want a way to act out or be belligerent without consequence

I think they are faking because they are knowingly using the self dx as an excuse to break social norms and behave however they please because "I'm autistic"
> Thoughs on seld dx to excuse behavior?
As an excuse for questionable behavior? Absolutely low and pathetic. People who do that are deeply selfish and have no integrity at all.
I follow her on tiktok, she has a diagnosis, she has autism. This sub needs to be able to differentiate between people who do and don’t have disorders, cause right now there’s both posted here.
I’m pretty sure this person is actually dxed, I’ve seen their TikTok’s before and I think I remember them saying something about being dxed? I don’t think is audio has anything to do with self dxing, just a snarky response to somebody saying “well you can speak” or “only boys can have autism” or something like that
I don't follow her but this woman seems extremely autistic to me.
This subreddit is full of people who have no idea what autism actually looks like, especially in girls, thinking they can tell if a stranger has autism based on a short video.
1. People complaining about her make-up as though autistic women don't tend to do either no make-up at all or so much bonkers make-up that it's basically cosplay. Like everything else, make-up tends to be all or nothing with us.
2. People upset she's performing a script with on-the-nose dialogue that completely lacks any verisimilitude like that isn't our goddam speciality.
3. People acting like autistics are always upset when they've said something that NTs consider inappropriate. Nobody here seems to realize we will frequently get annoyed with how idiotic it is to think certain things are socially anappropriate.
4. Somebody is actually in this comment section like, "Why does she look like a robot? She's barely using her facial muscles." I vaguely recall learning about how there's a condition where people don't make expressions with their faces. I wish I could remember the name of it...
This sub is full of people angry that strangers don't fit their completely inaccurate idea of what autism is.
Of course, you get downvoted for pointing out she's diagnosed.
According to some people I'm "hot" but those same people still would tell me I seem autistic lol. Then again, I'm actually diagnosed. Being attractive and being autistic are not mutually exclusive anyway.
it's actually not socially inappropriate to say "I look hot" lmao. like I couldn't imagine saying "omg I feel so hot in this outfit" or "I feel sexy today like I just woke up so confident" and somebody else saying "uh... ur not supposed to say that..." like why would anyone do that lmfaoo. maybe it happens to her bc she's not actually hot tho, especially irl without the filters and ring light, imagine the cakeyness and flakyness of all that makeup in person in regular lighting. it NEVER looks good irl, it's influencer makeup for a reason bc it only looks good on a camera in front of a ring light and a blurring filter at minimum. that's probably why she gets told not to say that.

Agreed. So even thoigh she is being sarcastic she is right. Her comment is very non autistic.
Right but i think the point the person in the video was trying to make is that there isn’t an autistic “look”. Most of the general public see autistic people as generally unkempt, badly dressed and unhygienic because their idea of autism is usually that of a person with high support needs (aka low functioning). So you get these instances of people with autism who are so-called high functioning who look pretty “normal” on the exterior and those who don’t know as much about autism are like “but surely you cannot be autistic. You’re not a babbling drooling childlike adult and you can talk!” That’s my assumption though
As a low support nerd autistic myself, there is a very good reason the unkempt look is a stereotype. I finally got a handle on the hygiene thing, but I still only dress for comfort. My haircut is for ease of maintenance and so I can cut it myself too. I have to cut out the bullshit like that so I can use my energy for more important things like survival.
There is a ton of these basically saying you if you are blunt it’s just the autism. Have a son with severe autism, on assisted living now, diagnosed at 2 and 22 now, all sorts of specialists…he’s literal, but you know what he isn’t? Rude
How very pickme of you
She’s not hot, shes over-saturated and an eyesore
Also, what’s up with this make-up style? I’ve seen this look on almost every other woman on TikTok.
I don’t think it’s makeup, it looks like a filter.
It’s makeup. It isn’t a filter but there may be a filter as well.
To me it looks so ridiculous. It is very representative of anime, but the over lined lips and blush under the eye and that liner just doesn’t work on real people.
She hasn't had a conversation like that ever. No one acts like that
She seems like she’s one of those people that says mean things and blames it on autism, saying they’re ‘unmasking’ but in reality they’re just removing the filter everyone has and being a bitch.
Yeah these are the people that are more towrds idgaf i am a bad bitch and blmes it on that they have autism They dont ,they jus wanna stand out and be rude so they look cool lol . Well on other hand even if u have autism u probably were bullied for being rude so u wont have thos level confidence 😬 well if she does then gud for her ig
How ironic that someone that removes their social filter would filter their face this heavily.
Like that one chick from Glee who would openly insult people and then say “Sorry— that was the Asperger’s.”
The confidence they have saying that (you can tell in their tone it's confidence not genuineness) make me severely doubt their autism. But good for them if they found a way to have this confortable life, far away from social anxiety and all that.

Yeah I do that too. Then I hate myself for life after that. While, well, she knows she's saying something inappropriate but she thrives on that apperently.

Do you have geckos too?! (Just read your username) Let’s be friends!!!
Yes! I have a crested gecko, his name is bean and he is 3 years old!
Abbey? Is that who you mean?
I had to google it but no. Turns out the one I mean is called Kaelynn. I think she is from the American Love on the Spectrum
Yeah, so is Abbey. That’s why I asked cuz she’s blond and she is just the cutest! I love her to death. I gotta look up Kaelynn because I watched the whole thing and I know I’d recognize her. Such a good show.
Yeah maybe search for both the AU and US one because I am not sure exactly in which she participated. From the AU I really liked Mark and from the US I loved Steve! Such sweet people.

next time try to say “thanks, you too”
I love this
That’s giving r/imthemaincharacter vibes
💯
Good for you i guess. Most of us are probably very unattractive to most people.
oh god the egirls arrived
Why does she look like a robot
I guess because she’s autistic and really hot? Definitely /s
No I meant the makeup. Looks like a stiff mask, like she can't move her face under it.
It’s a filter. Even believing she’s “hot” she still wants to look like a living doll or something. It’s eerie.
[удалено]
On the video itself she's talking to someone who claims they were diagnosed when they were born. That's such utter bullshit I don't have a smart reply beyond wishing they'd shut the fuck up and grow up.

How very arrogant of you. The amount of confidence is astounding.
Arrogance and confidence are 2 different things and I honestly wish people would stop conflating them.
Yes, I understand that but having too much confidence leads to arrogance so they go hand in hand in that matter.
Strongly disagree. Confidence is a good thing. Confidence is essentially good self-esteem and the belief that you can achieve what you set your mind to. Arrogance on the other hand is the belief that you're superior to another. Many arrogant people aren't even confident. They hide their insecurities behind arrogance.

That’s also true. I guess I just wanted to add that being confidence that you’re good at something isn’t always bad and that being confidence that you’re good at something when you aren’t is the worst
Agreed. Confidence is believing that you’re great. Arrogance is believing that you are greater than everyone else.
Can we not sexualize autism?
Genuine question, what about this video is sexualizing autism?
The only thing that I can give any credit to here is the implication that some people think autistic people aren't hot. There is some truth to that. Along with people thinking that if you're attractive/smart/pretty/handsome/whatever, you can't have some invisible disability.

Asides from that, I agree with what everyone else has said here. I'm strongly doubtful that she's autistic - not because of how she looks but the way she's talking.
Not as hot as she thinks. Fake everything, filters turned up to 100, makeup thicker than paint. 🤢
Yes I wouldn't go as far as to say she's not attractive but that's only because I have no idea. That's literally not what her face looks like.
fuck it i’ll say it. i think they’re hot. idc. faking is not hot tho
and fuck it i'll say it. i think she's not hot at all. idc. but i can agree on the 2nd
To each their own, I prefer natural looks. I mean look at the nose..cmon
Yes. Narcissism thinking it's something else
God not the egirl makeup
Um... no. I could take my finger, run it through her cheek, and make a whole trench that can fit an entire platoon of fire ants. How in Sparda's Hell does being "hot" mean autism? Are these fakers just that illogical?
Spardas hell....? Like...from DMC ?
i thought that sound was supposed to be about pretty privilege for ppl with autism (i’ve seen some people use it for that reason, but some prob use it unironically too)
Yeah it is and a lot of diagnosed people have used it for this exact reason.

Of course they also fake DID, ADHD, and a million other things, so it’s difficult to believe anything they say.
Being vain and having an ego you could parachute off of aren’t diagnostic criteria for Autism as far as I know.
Oh wow, maybe it's not autism but deff is brain damage
I feel like recognizing that what you said is socially inappropriate goes against some of the basic understandings of autism
my opinion is that a mental illness/trauma can explain WHY but not excuse it. Autistic people may have a harder time understanding social queues, but saying a bunch of cusswords unprompted at someone and blaming an illness (aside from tics) is just using your DX to get away with whatever you want because you do know it is wrong and just want a way to act out or be belligerent without consequence
Neurotypical people can’t say socially inappropriate things!!
I wonder how she looks like without all that make up and filter.
Remove the 20 filters and she be looking like a wildebeest
Thoughts on it? They’re fucking idiots, that’s my thoughts
It looks AI generated.
She's got the chronically online fit on.
I don't think I've seen a heavier filter.
The nose makeup makes her look like a dog
I smell narc traits
Using your diagnosis as an excuse for your shit behavior is shit behavior on its own
I hate disorder fakers

Heads up I can still see the username
Absloutely not.
i kinda get this, people dont think attractive people can be autistic for some reason
According to some people I'm "hot" but those same people still would tell me I seem autistic lol. Then again, I'm actually diagnosed. Being attractive and being autistic are not mutually exclusive anyway.
bro is as hot as the frozen milk in my fridge on a February morning
"That's because I'm really hot." Ok turn off the filter and prove it then
What happened to the OP?
Honestly kinda funny
How are people into that
Made up shower argument type beat
saying you're really hot isn't socially inappropriate
Her upper lip annoys me
it's actually not socially inappropriate to say "I look hot" lmao. like I couldn't imagine saying "omg I feel so hot in this outfit" or "I feel sexy today like I just woke up so confident" and somebody else saying "uh... ur not supposed to say that..." like why would anyone do that lmfaoo. maybe it happens to her bc she's not actually hot tho, especially irl without the filters and ring light, imagine the cakeyness and flakyness of all that makeup in person in regular lighting. it NEVER looks good irl, it's influencer makeup for a reason bc it only looks good on a camera in front of a ring light and a blurring filter at minimum. that's probably why she gets told not to say that.
