There is debate in the autistic community as to whether or not autism should be treated as a health problem or not. The "neurodivergent" or "neurodiversity" crowd argue the label is flimsy, stigmatizing, or they imply autism is good/neutral. Those opposed to the "neurodivergent" and "neurodiversity" movements claim that these movements downplay behavioural and social issues often found in those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders. | There is debate in the autistic community as to whether or not autism should be treated as a health problem or not.

Autism diagnoses have increased globally, possibly due to [[mutation|mutations]], though expansion of diagnostic criteria and increased awareness of the condition could possible contribute or account for this.<ref>https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/autism-spectrum-disorders</ref> | |||

In accordance with the [[blackpill]] there is also some evidence that the social difficulties that those with ASD face do not only originate with the neurological traits of the disorder, but also with how those with the disorder are perceived by others. An article in the scientific journal Nature <ref>https://www.nature.com/articles/srep40700</ref> presented a series of studies that demonstrated that when shown photos and clips of social interactions(filmed via first person with a go pro camera) of a group of ASD versus neurotypical individuals, ASD individuals were, as a group perceived as significantly less attractive, dominant, likeable, and fun to 'hang-out' with. They were however, perceived as roughly equally trustworthy, smart and good to live near compared to NT controls. '''Their findings also demonstrated that the "negative first impressions of adults with ASD occurred only when audio and/or visual information was present, and not when the transcript of their speech content was evaluated. This discrepancy suggests that social presentation style rather than the substantive content of social speech drove negative impression formation of individuals with ASD.'''" | In accordance with the [[blackpill]] there is also some evidence that the social difficulties that those with ASD face do not only originate with the neurological traits of the disorder, but also with how those with the disorder are perceived by others.

There are autistic male models, that literally look autistic but are still somehow objectively good looking at the same time.<ref>https://www.kemifilani.ng/2019/06/indias-first-male-model-with-autism-is-making-headlines.html</ref> | |||
