"Autistic meltdown" is one of those phrases that summarizes the people we post about on this thread so nicely.
I've only heard of the term "autistic meltdown" once before. A guest on the podcast "Gender: A Wider Lens" (don't remember the name of this clinician) talked about some of his autistic patients, whom when challenged on their beliefs, would have what he referred to as an "autistic meltdown". This was in a group setting, mind you, with several patients, so you would think they'd behave.
They didn't.
The autistic mind isn't too keen on nuance, or gray-scales though. So, he would see these
outbursts from time to time.
Troons are three to six times (archive)
more likely to be autistic than the rest of us.
BBC, Psychology Today, even fucking Wikipedia ...they ALL have articles on this phenomenon.
Remember that Google Doc (I can't find it now) that compiled all the hateful messages sent to J.K. Rowling?
So much of that MUST have been autistic troons having their stereotypical autistic meltdowns.
At it's radioactive core, this whole debate is about whether or not you truly believe in the possibility of troon-metamorphosis.
I never will. Sexual dimorphism, innit.
