This is interesting but the author’s take on the lower birthrate among autistic people is bizarre, they seem to assume that everyone wants children:

‘But we don’t know whether their reproductive rates are lower because people on the autism spectrum face challenges with romantic relationships or because they are more likely to have certain health-related disorders such as polycystic ovary syndrome that affect fertility. The answer is probably multifactorial.’

Not to mention the higher population rates of lgbtqia amongst autistics.

@pathfinder Exactly. It makes it sound like only hitting some kind of logistical problem would explain it.

Typical presumption that their way is the only way.
