>>56750794On the topic of furries & its correlation to autism: I keep pondering/wondering/theorizing as to why is it that?
Is it just a systematic grooming front laid out by sexual predators - that is targeting autists as prey (children and/or autistic adults [as a "child-like" substitute to actual children] being really into cutesy animal properties/franchises - and are oftentimes known to being more gullible/naive in many ways compared to NTs - especially giving into being groomed due to that & their innate poor grasp of reading cues of creeps/being taken advantage of)
-or-
Is it just autists who develop odd formative sexual imprints (objects, scenes, sensations or parasocial attachments to fictional characters; especially fantasy/anime/cartoon/anthro related)? I suppose the fact that many of such kinks being derived from weirdly specific things (sinking in quicksand or the "willy wonka blueberry inflation" scenes) kind of supports the latter theory a bit.
My angle is that anything that revolves power dynamics/SM is where it gets more explicitly red-flaggy; but everything else otherwise plausibly seems like abhorrent but innocent sperginess in origin.
