Oh my!... I never really know what to think of this kind of thing... my gutt reaction is strong dislike. For me personally, this, like "Pride", kind of goes quite against the actual thing we want as autistic people, and/or gay people: to be just an accepted member of society. To simply be seen as just another kid at school, neighbour, coworker. Sure, there needs to be more education in many ways, there are still a lot of myths around.
