Adult guardianship is a threat to gay rights and gender identity and something we need to address and possibly make a law that says that you must respect a wards right to be gay or transgender if you want guardianship over an adult autistic.
Extremely informative and really interesting! Being Dutch, it was a nice way of seeing a (semi-)objective presentation on this. You're giving a lot of other resources and informative data, without losing an academic way of looking at it. Thanks a lot!

I am very interested in the topic and would like to know where the graphic from George & Strokes, 2018 comes from. I'm having trouble finding the source.
When I think of male and female nothing comes to my mind, I'm most likely like someone who doesn't know. Sometimes I choose female online if there is no other option. Also, I'm asexual. I have not done a diagnostic test just screening test. I saved a few scores. Autism Canada said I was high risk. I got 38 and 30 to 50 is high risk. I got 20 out of 80 on the empathy quotient. So, I might be Level 1 Autism. I scored better than the average of non autistic people on a Repetitive Behavior Test. I have aphantasia and alexithymia.
It is ok, Ask why it is ok also. In autism the lack of real close friendships in the same gender is confused to physical attraction to same gender. Which autistic individual would like to have this issues.
I find it difficult to express my gender. I feel like I have no gender. Others have the experience that they are befriend with a guy... But I am a women. But I am. Indifferent with regard to my gender.
Got a penis? Youre a man. Vagina? A woman. All this feeling stuff as a way to identify sex/gender!? Please tell me how does a woman feel? How does a man feel? This crap is just reinforcing stereotypes. Overpaid academics making a lot of money off of this psy op.
@WolfmanIsdrawing if you stop listening to the bull crap that’s being shoved down your throat you would probably be just fine.. More like your mom tried telling you that you were something that you aren’t.. Either you are a male or female when born unless a medical condition which is different..
The statistic "at least 5% of pregnancies have a chromosome combination other than that" is presented misleadingly, as if to suggest almost 5% of the population has sex chromosome abnormalities. No! Most pregnancies with abnormal chromosome number, aka "anneuploidies" are not carried to term. Then, you have to consider tht most humans have 46 total chromosomes, only 2 being sex chromosomes. Thus, the number of people born with some sort of sex chromosome abnormality is closer to 1/450.
I didn't know there was a specific corrolation between Autism and Queer Identity. I knew I was not hetero since I before can remember having a concept of sexuality. I did not know I was Autistic until I was 28. (I recently turned 48.) I always knew I was different, from pretty much everyone I ever met... even from so many other LGBTQ*+ people. I am Non-Binary, primarily attracted physically/sexually/romantically to "males" with a stronger emotional/psychological affinity with "females." I found a few videos, and later some other research, on Autism in females a few years back, and I identified much more with several of the "female traits" and ways of masking, than I ever did with the "traits" often attributed to male Autistics. About a couple of hours ago, I simply decided to search for info that was specific to Autism, in the LGBTQ*+ community, and your video "popped" up... so I clicked! Twenty years in, and I am still learning about Autism in general, let alone all the ways, my own Autism, effects my daily life.
Research and statements very nicely formulated and presented. The Powerpoint on the other hand, like..; strong colours, heavy contrast and messy arranging --- made the ride a bit wobbly for me ^^'
Give it time but at the very least being autistic gives you a heightened priority of more often self reflecting inward and questioning how your identiy is. Which can domino into reorrienting sexuality
This was on my recommended (I'm autistic and I like to learn about my problems) so I'm only here to learn but if my parents kicked me out when they learned I was autistic I'd kill myself
My boyfriend and I do t hug hold hands or kiss. I don’t try out of respect. Would it ever be appropriate for me to try to make that happen one. In a while? If I did, is there a way to do that without making him uncomfortable? I respect him and so r want him to mask. I love him as he is but holding hands occasionally would be nice for me if he also enjoyed it too but I don’t think he would or else he’d do it. I focus on much better connections we have than typical Hans holding and kissing. Hugs a are la second with him patting my back. I don’t want to change him but curious if I should initiate a little bit and if so, how.
Cheers to you to come out at all. I didn't come out even to myself until I was in my forties. And now I am out only to 3 people. So I am proud of you to live authentically 🌈
Thanks for this. I lived in Park City Utah for most of my teenage years. During my sophomore year of high school I never learned about about the LGBTQ+ community and domestic violence. I came out as a lesbian on December 11th 2015 and came out as non binary on February 6th 2021 and officially diagnosed with Level 2 ASD on October 17th 2021. I’m also legally blind as well so that’s why it took so long to get the ASD diagnosis. I knew I was different from a young age with both with my ASD gender identity and sexual orientation. Because of LDS church had a lot to do the lack of sex education in the educational system in Utah . Also it would be helpful if domestic violence was talked about as well . I’m a survivor of Domestic violence rape and stalking .
54 years old. Born female. Identified as male since five years old. Mid 1990's underwent psychological testing under Harry Benjamin Standards of care 3 not just 2 PhD's for hormones and surgery approval. The intensity of two years of therapy ALMOST caught autism but I remained stable and secure in my identity as a man 1990s with family support just like at five and just like today 2022. Nuero psych testing 3 months, family report and interview. 54 year old trans autistic man. No regrets. Trans autistic requires support services cues and assist. Did hold a job 26 years with support help. Could there be a link between trans adults and autism?
LGBTQ community are challenging some very basic and strongly ingrained ideas, including how we use pronouns…to be honest, it is not easy to warp my head around all this…
It's not easy, but isn't it great that we're starting to understand gender in a less restrictive manner? It's good not just for LGBT+, but for everyone to live more freely.
I think it just shouldn't matter that much. If I don't fit into a category, I don't fit into it, that doesn't mean I need to search for another one or create one where I will fit, because I can just be myself. That's it I'm myself always and any time
Even Freud understood that sexuality is fluid. At a conceptual level, it is very important to understand this material and research and broaden our minds. At a level of utility and practice; that's different. Especially for young people just coming into their sexuality and dealing with social, romantic longing and frustration; it can be very difficult and challenging to fit all these new ideas in; and it may seem oppressive in context. Guidance and mentorship are essential.
@Glosi dove I sympathize with the gist of the last comment. Teaching gender theory to an autistic heterosexual child already struggling with intense social and emotional challenges growing up...it also strikes me as just too much. For some, it may be liberating. For others though, it may just seem oppressive and confounding. I can attest to that personally. As an young aspie growing up in a very Liberal neighborhood; being bombarded with Gender and Feminist theory in High School INCREASED rather than decreased my horror of sexuality. It made it seem a frightening unintelligible mess.
it's my theory that those ingrained ideas are more recent than you may think, and that diff cultures knew about the nuance and baked it into their social constructs
Please be SURE you know your own identity and spend lots of time with therapy before experimenting with hormones or surgery. THAT can't be undone-no going back and you must understand what irreversible really means. Crying later you made a mistake and didn't know yourself well enough will not help you feel better about yourself in the end. Identity can be an experiment. Grounded reality is when hormones and surgery occur-there is cost, often poor results, complications, revisions. A road only a handful should ever travel.
Most autistic people know themselves very well, thanks. Also, they won't put perform surgery on someone immediately, the transition process takes years, it's not something that's done on a whim like on TV.
@@robokill387 You're right; since my comment, the decision has indeed been overturned. However, massive waiting lists, professional practice and institutional and organisational scrutiny have now all conspired to effectively remove any medical interventions from under 18s in this context.
Ages 15-16 and above, fine. Children ages 10-14 don't need to be assigned or to speculate any of this at this age. Apparently this kind of thing is part of our special ed school systems where I live now, and I think it's kind of disturbing, am I the only one seeing this I think it's going a bit too far, there are far more important things for people at such a young age, they don't need that in the back of their head...

And if you think I'm being insensitive to people who have a hard time mentally, then fine, choose to believe whatever you want to - For me personally It's not a hate thing, it's because I actually really like people who have the capacity to be very nice and sweet, but they're deluded into thinking you can just cosmetically change yourself and suddenly be better.

Don't let yourself or other's brainwash, it's more irresponsible than what you think I'm doing.
I don't understand what you're talking about. There are only 2 genders. But it doesn't matter what anyone wants to identify as...just so long as they don't make everyone else use all those ridiculous pronouns.
@@MapleyMaple How do they conduct "evidence based research" on how many genders there are? ...especially when there could potentially be as many sexualities as there are people.
Why do i need to comprehend and comply with all utterly insane machinations? What would happen if people just be their own nature? Instead of brutally smashing innate natures to fit a box that turns you on? I've never met any sex/gender obsessed individual who could think of anthing but use and abuse others. I don't need any of that lunacy in my survival.
This was so NOT what i thought it was going to be. I'm interested in the scientific side of how mental health/illness contributes to gender dysphoria... not how to embrace it.

Hi friend, I think I understand where you're coming from. I developed my own channel talking about transgenderism from a logical and rational viewpoint rather than radical acceptance. I'd like to chat with you more, maybe I can help.
I so wish the rest of the med and education professionals thought more like you. Unfortunately there are still many who are decades out of step.
