I literally am a man that openly admits to having sex with other men, in a small, 80% Republican town in Kentucky; bigot central.
But I have faced FAR MORE hatred and discriminate for my Asperger's than I EVER have for my sexuality.
Autism Awareness matters. We are people. We aren't disabled. We aren't mentally ill. We aren't Low IQ (r-slur). We aren't weirdos. We are people whose brains just happen to be differently wired. There's a reason Asperger's is so common among entertainers. We are people pleasers, but the world is cruel and judgemental to us.

People in North America are very stupid and condeming about these thing, no offense. 14-17 isn't that big of an age difference, and nevermind the fact you were both minors at the time. And yes, what I say all ties in with the current accusations and "cancel culture" going on within the Smash community. This is my say on the matter.

I don't know just how grave are the things every one of these accused players is, but I'm sure a couple of them have gotten **** they don't deserve for things like these, going as far as being called actual "pedophiles". There's an actual difference between a 15 year old willingly inciting a sexual act than an actual full grown adult outright forcing a child (an actual child, like a 12 year old and under) to do something against their will.

Then again, it's very likely that at least half of the community is from the U.S or Canada, so I'm not surprised many will disagree with what I say.

I actually wouldn't have been able to tell you had some sort of austism, let alone Asperger's, from what I've seen in your video. You felt pretty normal to me, and even rather sociable and relatable.
