Ok, I was gonna put this as a comment cause it’s a response to the argument, but the comments don’t let you add photos so here.

I don’t really wanna get involved in this but the shit about ‘no one talked about it before you kids came’ or whatever is blatantly false and just mean (why should someone’s opinion be disregarded due to their age when the question has nothing to do with it?). People have been talking about autistic/aspie house since 2008:

And these are adults talking about it! This was posted while the show was airing on cable tv, no one younger than 16 was watching it without an adult.

“House is autistic” of course “Chase is just like House” yes that’s correct. But “Chase is autistic”? Suddenly you’re getting kicked out of the function.

#plus autistic people can and do show/have empathy #and can read emotions and understand social cues #autism is not a black and white thing it’s a fucking spectrum which is why it’s called AUTSIM SPECTRUM DISORDER #so shut up with your goddamn ‘autistic people can’t emote properly’ crap because it’s not fucking true and it hurts people #sorry this gets real personal for me as an autistic adult that was denied diagnosis as a child cause I had friends & socialized ‘normally’#autism is a developmental disorder not a social one and only gets noticed for social delays because that’s how people interact #it’s not all about the social aspects it’s about learning & cognitive function & internal emotions & processing & life skills & interests
