Do us autistics see gender identity different?

Thpsguy

So I identify as male as is my birth gender but I ditb adhere to gender stereotypes that for example certain music tastes are girlie or a ladies jumper or jeggings shouldn't be worn by men the way I see it if it suite my frame and I like. The design I'll wear it 

Also make. Up I like how I feel. And look when I wear mascara(I go less supptlw on the lower lashes though) eyeliner eyeshadow foundation blush and bronzer 

Is this why more autistic people are honest and open if they are trans?

    I've pretty much lost Interest in football unless it's on a video game the sports I do like on tv are the Olympics skateboarding and sometimes rugby(league and union) but even that has got too. Celebrity now 

    I don't like DM boots unless they're black Ruby or the Union Jack ones I had and docs are definitely kro about style than comfort they are heavy lol

    I also see that a lot as well, Like i love Pink and Purple clothing and just as colours in General, im also a guy and also gay so its kinda a big thing for most Autistic People to actually Understand from our Point of view. 

    I would put myself as very Fem like. But again thats the Attitude we should be showing cus most the times we actually dont really care what most people say About us.

    Whats not to like about purple?, Why would you not want to wear it? Does beer drinking mark out gender or sexual preferences? I remember being one of the first women in the pub I used to go to in my teens who drank pints, some places refused to serve me pints because I was a woman, thank the Gods those days are gone. I wish there was a better range of soft drinks in pubs, I don't drink alcohol, but most places round here only have horrible cola and lemonade from those tap things, and it's always over diluted, to fizzy and over priced
