Any time you say it doesn't make sense for a character not to be aspec because they're autistic/that character is autistic so them being aspec makes more sense without like, actually having a reason to think that beyond "they're autistic/autistic coded" an angel loses its wings. Also I'm biting you. Btw

#vent #i say this as an aspec autistic person i am Aware of the irony of that #but it's the infantalization of it all #like “oh they're autistic they don't know what sex is and they can't POSSIBLY want it”#i slept two hours last night so idek how coherent this is #like it'd be one thing to be like “aww i really thought this character was aspec :(”#and another to be like “wtf how does this character liking women make sense it would make more sense for her to be aspec bc she's autistic”#the first one you're disappointed a show doesn't fit your hc. understandable! fine! normal!!!!!#the second you're infantalizing autistic people by saying autistic=aspec #anyways this is on me for peeking into the tags of a lowkey trashy show lmfao #also like i'm not saying you Need Evidence or some shit. i'm saying that if your argument is autism makes you aspec that's infantalizing
