          It doesn't help when parents buy into/perpetuate the whole, "You'll never have an intimate partner bc you're Autistic/Disabled" thing.

          And okay, yeah, it's fair to be realistic about the fact that we live in an ableist world that infantilizes Disabled ppl.

          You don't have to teach your child that they're inherently unattractive and unworthy and will never have a partner just bc that's your fear.

          Like, before you start talking with your child about sex and relationships and intimacy and stuff, you really need to reckon w/your ableism.

          Your own ableism and assumptions. And then you can teach your child about respect and consent and sexual health.

          One pervasive problem is that a lot of Disabled kids, especially in "special ed" programs, don't get good sex ed.

          If they get sex ed at all. Because of assumptions about Disabled ppl and sexuality.

          Just. The other thing, a thing @crippledscholar talked about, is the lack of consent here.

          And I think probably also this parent is weirdly infantilizing her son and limiting his competency.

          It's so strange to me that you would both initiate this on your own without the consent/expressed wishes of the person having the sex...

          Being Autistic doesn't mean people can't initiate seeking sex on our own. Don't teach your kids that.
