It’s really interesting that some autistic people are “I can’t understand body language at all” and some are “I understand and perceive every little twitch of the eyebrow so thoroughly that I catch things other people never could”. I say this as somebody who doesn’t know if they’re autistic or not, but has many friends who are on the spectrum, is in a poly relationship with two people who absolutely are, and find the differences between how all these things affect them fascinating.
But I don’t have autism. Nope. That’s not me. ADHD as hell but I can’t be autistic, I’m obsessed with physical contact and I love vegetables! lmao
Learn or die was my motto because I was already being murdered by all the other little girls for being weird, but at least I could see it coming now because body language!
