What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:

I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.

I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.

What advice would you give to a father of a teenage daughter on how to protect her from boys, dating, and social media? How should fathers discuss these topics with their daughters?

I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.

It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

I'm looking for an answer from people who consider themselves "Gender Critical", or transphobic, or TERFs, and my question is this - Why would you refuse to use the pronouns someone wants? What does it cost you? Where's the harm?

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I wasn't unable to get non verbal communication and non literal communication too.

How does Bollywood influence Indian culture?

I had a fantasy world, I was always there and that was the best place to be, when I was anxious I went there and zone out.

I had trouble to be fed. I ate slower and it was difficult for me to stop drinking from the bottle or breast. I also had trouble eating solid food.

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

What should I do if I love a girl and she apparently doesn't love me?

I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.

I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.

I always had a justice sense, if there was no equality or justice I would get very upset about that.

I had trouble sharing objects and food, normally someone had to tell me to give them something. I sometimes didn't want people to have my objects to the point of meltdowns.

I was very obsessed with angry birds, I played angry birds, I had ab toys, I watched ab in TV and I was so obsessed with that.

What are some alternatives to wearing a bra? Why do some women feel pressure to wear bras even though there may not be any benefits?

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.

I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.

I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.

These are my resumed signs of autism when I was a child. Most of them got overlooked because the only thing about autism my parents and grandparents knew was about very severe cases of autism. Another factor is that I was born female (I'm trans) and that I masked from a young age.

Anything could make me laugh to the point of annoying other people.
