New research indicates that transgender and non-binary individuals are significantly more likely to have autism or display autistic traits than the wider population – a finding that has important implications for gender confirmation treatments:
The study, led by Dr Steven Stagg of Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) and published in the journal European Psychiatry, is one of the first pieces of research to focus on people who identify as non-binary.
It found that 14% of the transgender and non-binary group had a diagnosis of autism, while a further 28% of this group reached the cut off point for an autism diagnosis, suggesting a high number of potentially undiagnosed individuals.
These figures were primarily driven by high scoring amongst those whose assigned gender was female at birth, supporting recent evidence that there is a large population of undiagnosed women with an autism spectrum disorder.
The authors also found higher levels of systematising (a tendency to analyse, control and use rule-based systems) and lower levels of empathy amongst the transgender and non-binary group, characteristics often found in individuals with an autism spectrum disorder.
The study of 177 people reported an autism diagnosis of 4% for the cisgender group (those whose gender identity matches their gender at birth). This is higher than previously-reported estimates for the wider population and the authors believe self-selection for the study could be responsible.
Dr Stagg, Senior Lecturer in Psychology at Anglia Ruskin (ARU), said: “We found that a significant proportion of the transgender and non-binary group either had a diagnosis of autism or displayed autistic traits, including a difficulty in empathising and an overreliance on systematic, rule-based reasoning.
Of course, this study neglects to mention that autism is caused by vaccine damage because that would make the solution to this problem rather simple. Get rid of these dangerous and ineffective vaccines, and you will greatly reduce gender confusion in children, but we can’t have that. And even if vaccines were shown to cause transgenderism, the LGBT community would come out firmly behind increased vaccination rates for children, as it would be yet another way to increase their numbers.
But this study shows an alarming potential correlation, with over 40% of ‘transgender’ children showing up somewhere on the autism spectrum. Officially, all vaccines are “safe” and “effective”, and therefore having nothing to do with autism or transgenderism. But now any attempt to “cure” autism will potentially be seen as a “covert” way of reducing transgender children, and that would be deemed ‘hateful’ and ‘homophobic,’ so perhaps it would be best for all concerned to forget about finding a cure for autism after all.

That guestion is a diversion, a deceit. The cause is j€wish ‘fueled’ preschool ‘education’ and screwed up sociopath parents making a disaster of our children.

The question posed by the title suggests that vaccine damage contributes to the problem of transgenderism. It doesn’t claim it’s the sole cause. Obviously, a major factor in promoting transgenderism is jewish propaganda, but the vaccine damage makes the children more susceptible to suggestive propaganda.

I know what it says.
Furthermore, you just emphasized my statement for the primal causes. There are many peripheral, contributing influences. Pervading jewish persuasion over vaccine ‘science’ may or may not be one of them. It’s a sketchy diversion from empirical knowledge!
. I stated long established causes that must be reconciled before chasing fashionable whims.

I’m perceiving a bit of animosity here. For what reason, I am unsure, other than the typical “let me beat my brother over the head with frivolous details we don’t have to agree on”. However, since we apparently do agree that Big Pharma is run by jews, how is pointing out the obvious connection between autism (of which vaccinations are a known key component in it’s cause) and this gender-bending phenomenon, a “fashionable whim” or even a “sketchy diversion”? It appears you may be putting the cart before the horse in determining what you believe to be the “long established causes that must be reconciled”. How are you going to reconcile the effects of our enemy, when you don’t seem interested in reconciling with your brother? Not trying to be combative here, just honest questioning…

Yep, Jews sell the vaccines and run the transgender propaganda machine. They have kids coming and going, and you want to argue which tentacle of the jewish octopus is the most lethal? Sounds like Talmudic hairsplitting to me. Do you wear a small round hat, RogueOps? Just asking….

And the jews are the masters at divising methods to make people more susceptible to their powers of suggestion…and it usually involves something detrimental to our health, so then they can make money from the misery they cause us. Satan really is a sly fellow, ain’t he?

We are being poisoned in every way conceivable – food, water, air, and pharmaceuticals. The GJU has no room for “cures”. Only God’s Kingdom does.
As far back as I remember, there has always been this ‘debate’ as to why we don’t see healing and miracles like “back in Jesus’ day”. God is the Great Physician and can heal anything. Why not now? There are millions of people who believe in Christ, so why is He ‘letting us down’?
Because, silly rabbits, faith without works is DEAD. Christ isn’t letting us down, we’re letting Him down! All of the healing miracles recorded in the New Testament required 2 things: complete faith in God by the healer, who is doing so for the full glory of God, and complete faith in God from the recipient of the healing. The fact that there are millions of Christians, and no obvious healing miracles, speaks volumes about their level of ‘righteousness’. Giving God lip service pisses Him off more than ignoring Him. We Christians are lukewarm…and that God spits out of His mouth!
We are reaping the plagues that God warned us would come. Why? It is exactly as He promised if we failed to follow His laws, which are meant for the sole purpose of establishing and maintaining His kingdom for His children. When we repent and finally live as Christians, God will heal us and our land…

This phrase stood out for me – “… difficulty in empathising …”.
The queer community generally has above average hostility to anyone normal, purely for the fact that we exist. To them, normal is “hateful”, even when we say absolutely nothing about their chosen (or perhaps chemically-induced) lifestyle.
No normal person would want to smear themselves with excrement, and no sane person could honestly describe what male homos do as a form of sex. They seem to delight in being as disgusting as possible.
Not every homo hates normal people, but the most vocal – of both biological genders – if given immunity from prosecution, would cheerfully murder everyone who doesn’t share their perverted thinking.
Another significant factor in all this “tranny” nonsense is brainwashed parents and corrupted schoolteachers. Young children and pre-teens are not yet sexual beings, so how could they “know” they want to be different unless the idea is put into their minds by adults?
