[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So far there is no known causation between autism and gender dysphoria, but personally, I believe there is one that will eventually be discovered because the overlap is disproportionately high. I believe there is a study currently being done at one of the DC hospitals? There have been a few other odd connections, like ehlers-danlos and hypermobility. https://ehlersdanlosnews.com/news/high-rate-transgender-gender-diverse-identities-eds-clinic/ My kid is both on the spectrum and hypermobile (but no signs of painful ehlers-danlos....just extremely flexible). [b]Personally, I do not like the intimation that people who are on the spectrum are being trans as a "special interest." I think it is paternalistic and kind of insulting--and another way to just invalidate someone's feelings about themselves. [/b] [/quote] Exactly. [/quote]
