Doesn't matter. The only reason we categorise people into Autistic or not is that we live in a society with expectations on how people should be. In a world with no social norms and pathologisation of people existing, I wouldn't be Autistic because there would be no 'normal' to compare it to.

The explanations that exist about the causes are inconsistent. There is a clarification definitive about its origin, what we have are hypotheses. Most of the experts on the subject, only describe symptoms, perceptions, behavioral, interventions, treatment in different approaches, however, do not clarify the cause of autism. Therefore, the hypothesis currently accepted is that of genetic bases.
