I suspect autistic people having bad introspection is directly related to why so many of us are queer. If you don't figure out these things about yourself until later in life, then you're more likely to have kids, gain financial independence, and survive than queer people who figure things out early and need to suffer the bigotry and oppression when they're most vulnerable. Just live the beginning part of your life as "normal" and you won't get stoned to death before you've had time to establish safety. I also think a lot of people who live in oppressive environments for their entire lives remain totally closeted and miserable instead of ever feeling safe enough to come out.
