Another thing I’ve seen happen thanks to the ~extreme male brain~ nonsense is that people think that queer autistic men can’t possibly exist because people incorrectly believe that being gay means being feminine and is therefore the result of a “female brain.” “Well your brain is super masculine, and being gay would make you feminine, so you can’t have both!!!”

I can’t speak for DMAB trans folk, but I’d be willing to bet the same thing happens to them.

yes, and it’s additionally used to deny trans care to autistic trans women & autistic transfeminine people.
