Not to offend anyone, but many articles say many people on the autism spectrum are TTTE fans. Being that I myself am autistic I decided to test this. If I offended anyone I am sorry.
To moderators: if you deem this offensive feel free to delete this thread

While I encourage constructive and healthy discussion of Autism I am not sure if a poll like this is appropriate for two reasons:
1) Unless everyone participates, such a poll will not show an accurate portrayal of members on SiF with Austism.
2) Regardless of outcome, people may see a poll like this and feel anxious or put "on the spot," and may feel categorized and discomforted by the disparity between the two options.
I am tempted to lock this thread, but as eight people have already voted there are at least eight people okay with it. I don't personally feel compelled to participate in the poll, nor am I asking anyone to, but I do not want anyone to feel like they are different or labeled.
As edwardsstation has stated, his intention is not to offend, but if this thread bothers you or makes you uncomfortable please PM a mod and have a chat with us.

I understand your point Ci, I will try to improve the pole by adding another option. Thank you for not locking the thread.
