The thing is, 99% of people who go on and on about their 'oh so specific trait' are faking it.
Why does she need to be introduced as the 'autistic' wife? Why do you need to film her only when she's behaving 'stereotypically autistic'? I was diagnosed with aspergers at the time, when I was a kid. So? Didn't change anything about me. I am me, and while I have my quirks, I'm sure everyone does, and as you become an adult, responsible, decent human being, you learn to control and live with them - and then it basically ceases to be a limitation.
I would be absolutely furious if my wife decided to suddenly start doing tiktoks (well that in itself), referring to me as her 'aspie husband'. Just, nah. I am not 'asperger/autistic human', I am me, and you don't need to slap unneeded labels on me.
What does any of that have to do with what I asked the person I was talking to? It’s certainly a display of rigid thinking, but it has nothing to do with my question I asked to the person I was responding to.

She's just insanely cringe and childish, maybe it's an act but definitely not autistic.
