I think that there are large parallels between the experiences of trans people and autistic people, so I thought it might be good to share some information on some of the problems trans people face and guidance on how to be a good ally.
I know it looks like a lot, but I hope it helps to increase understanding and compassion. If any other trans people who want to add to this, please do.
Thank you for sharing. This is a useful analysis.
I much enjoyed Laura Kate Dale's book Uncomfortable Labels and the opportunity she offers to see her autism, gender and sexuality through her eyes. Sadly, it's the only bio of its kind I've come across, I do hope more trans, non-binary and gender fluid people will in time educate us with their stories.
I recommend "Life isn't Binary." It's not autistic specific, but it's a great analysis on some interdectional ideas including gender, sexuality and disability. Link below if it works.
