Bub 🏳️‍🌈: As an autistic person, nothing overstimulates me more than being hot and sweating. I despise it. If you wanted to torture me into giving up the nuclear launch codes all you'd have to do is set the thermostat to 85.

I only want to live in 64 degree weather

Same.

I'm sorry is it autism to hate being sweaty

because one of the only reasons I don't do sport is because it makes you sweaty. It's also why I loved swimming before I moved somewhere without a public pool.

Yes, it's very common among autistic people.

Well, fuck me sideways

now am in a desert country bro. i just didn't understand what was happening to me but this explains it.

Okay, I hate to invoke the sense of something potentially worse But how do you feel about the sensation of walking in the rain and going inside with wet socks

I somehow have the opposite problem. I get incredibly cold easily, and feel uncomfortable unless it's warm or hot.

Same. I am extremely temperature-sensitive in both directions, but at least I can address cold conditions by putting on more clothes. Not so much with heat. (I am the opposite with water, though. I can handle warm/hot water, but cold water feels like torture.)
