someone said maud has autism. What do u think of that
I don’t want to really generalize any people who have mental illnesses by saying particular fictional characters have any disorders.
Heck, if I haven’t mentioned it enough, I myself am autistic (Mild aspergers syndrome) and I’m certainly not as emotionless as Maud is.
But as long as the theorizing that particular characters to certain disorders/disabilities is a noble cause. Not meant to stereotype them then that’s fine. Cause maybe they’re those who have those disabilities that find a character they really relate to.
But as a general rule, I don’t think it’s a good idea to say a particular character is disabled unless there’s a clear intention by the writers to convey that.
