💕🌈 Autistic Rebellion Month ~ Fact # 24: " 'It's not unusual'... Allistics fall in love with Autistics. Autistics fall in love with Autistics. We're quite loveable the way we are."
As briefly mentioned yesterday, its apparently a common misconception that autistics can't find loving romantic relationship. But ableism is a hurdle, not Autism.... Recently the netflix show "Love On The Spectrum" has gained criticism from the autistic community for falling short of honoring the agency of autistic audults, and while the show attempts to be kind to autistics - being kind is not the same thing as being respectful and these critiques are valid and can be summarized well in the Spectrum News review...
Also quick shout out to all the polyamorous and committed platonic relationships out there. All consentual adult partnerships are valid however they are. Stay visible! 🏳️🌈
(And yes "Its Not Unusual" is also a referrence to the song🎵)
