I got about 45, though people who observe me from the outside might add a few more that I haven't noticed!
Number 1 made me laugh because I mostly just wear black. I like it, it's easier to put oufits together that won't bother me OR other people, and it makes people think you're scary so they leave you alone. Given the number of other autistic people I know who do the same, I think this one might actually be another "we're at the extremes" autistic thing rather than all of us liking colour.
Last thing I want to do is stand out (despite my hero -see my avatar- not giving a fig about that). So I’m in muted colours always. Blues, greys, blacks. A ‘winter’s pallette’ sort of thing. I also know what colours don’t suit me and anything bright just wouldn’t.
