Many Autistic people are not lacking in social skills. Get a bunch of Autistic friends together and watch the magic happen.
Many of us are not lacking in humour or sarcasm. The funniest people I know are Autistic. Our humour may be different to yours.
Many of us have so much empathy that the feelings try to crush us. We might express that empathy differently to you.
We communicate. Our communication style is probably different to yours.
It’s not that we don’t have these skills.
It’s that we do them differently. They look different.
And they’re often unrecognisable to neurotypical folk.
But they are there.
