hi everyone,
i was just wondering if anyone was aware of the venn diagram between autism and the following things:
1) autism and veganism
2) autism and animal rights activism
2) autism and non-cisgendered gender identity
3) autism and queerness
i'm interested in the correlations/stats around this and any information about it that is out there.
thanks!
peter.
Turns out I didn't have to look very far both sets of research were conducted through INSAR and found through publications by Cambridge University.Sources found providing the related information and what of your list it is regarding:
Peter said:autism and veganism

While not about veganism, it does pose reasons why an autist might simply prefer a plant based diet.
