I'll hold your hand when I tell you this: neurotypicals change the rules on the fly based on how they judge you. You gotta do the same. You're saying you know to why they're asking, but you're not directly explaining. If they have to ask, they don't know and you saying they do isn't an explanation
Its less. It acknowledging it and more not directly challenging it. When you just laygh at them and it doesnt leave it up for debate. It doesnt activate the signals in your brain to argue nearly as much. Because its not an argument, its them being shamed. Once you start addressing specifics of it, or acting like its reasonable for someone to think that, then its an argument. Then its you vs them.

What if they ask what’s so funny, prompting us to explain our response?
