The project aims to build affective dialogues between the author's experiences - as a transgender autistic woman, activist, and autism content producer – and public posts by transgender autistic people on Twitter. Several factors explain why a higher prevalence of gender incongruity in the autistic population is not seen as a mistake or a superficial impression. However, mobile textualities about autism are still rooted in controversies about gender, sexuality, and autonomy. The research is carried out in an affective dimension, with methodological inspiration in autoethnography and digital ethnography. From the arguments and reports collected on Twitter territory, I try to understand the possible dialogues between the experiences of a transgender autistic woman and the content of people in the same condition on Twitter, observing the movements in which such intersectionality appears or dies out.
