Where did it say autistic? why should an interest in animals indicate autism?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It’s inferred.

There’s a whole subset of people for whom that statement would be an expression of endearment.

I would more just assume some people have a playful relationship with their partners and the subject of neurodiversity.

Maybe it's just my interpretation or that I see myself in that meme, but I would not say that. Maybe they are a biologist or have an interest in biology? Is it so weird to have an interest in wildlife beyond "kill it with fire"? Also, the term "autistic bitch" does not really scream endearment.

Then that's my bad for it not being clear it's intended as endearment

I'm autistic myself, not an excuse, and I'd like it if friends messed with me like this.

I'm into spiders so I could see myself doing this to one I see.

Tldr: my intention was that I am the autistic bitch
