I love how cis people, after reading (likely only the abstract) of one paper and now fashion themselves experts on the lived experience of trans people.

Measuring a correlation says nothing about causation (either way; there's a lot of room for confounding factors). The implication that autistic people will "mistake" their dysphoria is incredibly patronizing and just frankly rude.

Your post sounds like you strongly disagree with me, but it looks like we do agree on the facts. The paper measured a correlation but whether that implies causation is anyone's guess. The paper argued one direction, I argued the other direction, but both explanations fit the data which just shows that we don't know yet if there is causation.
