As an Asian person on the spectrum, one of the most annoying things I have to deal with are people who assume that I’m fresh off the boat or something because I talk or act weird. I’ve lived in America for over 30 years and many friends that I know who immigrated much later in their life are better able to pass off as being “American”. I don’t know if I’m rightfully offended by people who confuse my quirks for being on the spectrum as not being assimilated into American culture.
