As an autistic person who did not receive sex education, I researched the odds of sexual violence in my peers, and it is supported in the literature that we are at a tenfold increased risk, when compared to aged-matched non-disabled minority groups.
Autistic students also generate repulsion in school staff and supportive therapists when they are classified as engaging in inappropriate behaviors. Autistic people who do not learn about sexual health are disproportionately committing illegal acts to engage sexually, which is their biological and existential right.
