I dont think its weird to find autism attractive. Depending on who you ask, it might be called a disorder or just a normal trait. It’s the same way that any trait can be attractive.
Well, I didn’t find a real, good definition of ‘fetishizing’ but, if we agree on the one I’ll provide below, you should be able to answer for yourself in this and future cases.^1
Fetishization is the choice to extremely, positively overweight one or more intrinsic qualities of a person or group of people, such that there is a sexual or romantic preference of a person or group of people based on that innate trait, irrespective of their overall character as a person.
Autism is weird for this definition because, while it is an inherent facet of a person, it does have a large effect on how a person grows up. This obviously shapes their character.
As an experiment, take your hypothetical dream person. A second party is a necessity for mental grounding. If you can find another person to assist, have them swap out character traits (social, personal, mental, etc.) until you find a point you’d no longer find the hypothetical dream person appealing.
Anyway, hope you can do some self-study and find that answer.
^1 If you don’t agree, then we’re piss outta luck and I’m gonna leave.
Going with that definition, I don’t fetishize autistic women because my perception of a women’s sexiness is not affected by neurotype. It’s the relationship and connection that I would value with an autistic woman over others.
I’m with 2 but instead of shared interests it’s shared sense of humor and tendency toward self destructive alcoholism. I’m more and more convinced it’s going to blow up in my face.
Nope. I married a bpd woman when I was young and she eventually turned on everyone in her life. Not saying people with bpd don’t deserve treatment and sympathy but interacting with someone with untreated bpd is exhausting, traumatic, and not worth it.
Strong agree, and something I hope Survivor corrected. I haven’t gotten a chance to play the second yet, but I’m looking forward to it regardless since I really did enjoy the first game despite its flaws.
Ahh, okay. I actually really enjoy hub design when it’s done properly (e.g. Dark Souls 1). I’ll probably start Survivor after I finish Nier Replicant remake (and game that’s got kind of a primitive hub design, come to think of it).
I think the furthest I ever got was the bit with At-Ats on my PS4 save. This screenshot is from my Steam deck save after I picked it up on the summer sale so I’m hoping to complete it this go around. Especially because of all I hear about how good it is
