    I have read somewhere that being gay seem s to be common in autism (relatively speaking considering autistic people are a minority.) my advice would be to take her seriously. But remember she is only 12. However I wouldn’t suggest to her it’s jist a phase. As it may well not be. Other than that, just accept her as she is let her know you accept her sexuality whatever it may be
