Here’s a place to put a different spin on things to give an alternate, positive viewpoint. I’ll start us off:
Premature ejaculation: Someone so sexy and beautiful that they can make men cum without touching them.
Aututism: Nature’s attempt at creating real-life X-men.
Incontinence: Squirting for the permanently aroused.
Baldness: Camoflauge for football hooligans.
Please add your own efforts below. |

Hangovers: An excuse for groaning when you wake up and find that you scraped the bottom of the barrel when you see in your bed the person you brought home from the club last night. |

I'm not sure calling autistic people mutants is all that "positive." |

I didn’t call autistic people mutants but autism is caused by a mutation of the genes similar to how X men are created. The X men comic was created to empower readers who were different which is why they changed the life of one 7 year old autistic boy when he read his first comic. |

The logic of your post clearly implies that autistic people are mutants. Otherwise, your 'spin' doesn't make sense.
There is no known single 'cause' of autism. But genetic variants likely effect 100% of the population, so "mutation" is hardly a good frame for autism.
And the x-men comics were originally about civil rights, not neurodivergence. |
