Wanting to fit in with their peers can be a strong driver for autistic young people. This desire to be accepted can increase their risk of doing things that they don’t understand, don’t want to do, or don’t feel good about. Autistic young people may feel some additional pressure to watch pornography even if they don’t want to see it – to keep up with peers.

Some autistic young people may find it difficult to turn away from anything that captures our attention. The combination of a monotropic mind, the sexually explicit nature of the content, and the algorithms that provide a constant supply of more and more videos can make it particularly difficult for autistic young people to turn away from pornography.

A lack of access to clear, age-appropriate sexuality education may increase the risk that pornography becomes autistic young people’s primary source of sexuality education. Autistic young people are even less likely than their non-autistic peers to receive appropriate sexuality education. Some adults falsely assume that autistic young people are not sexual beings, and therefore do not require sexuality education. Or they may provide sexuality education that is not developmentally appropriate and doesn’t make sense to the autistic young people in their care.

Autistic young people may find it difficult to distinguish fantasy from reality and think pornography is real. Autistic young people tend to be trusting and to have a very literal way of understanding people and the world around them: they are inclined to believe what they hear and see. So, when autistic young people see pornography, they may find it particularly difficult to identify that the people in porn are ‘acting’ or pretending. They may believe it’s real.

It is common for people on the spectrum to have difficulty interpreting their own and others’ feelings and perceptions. Coupled with other autistic traits – including intense interests, repetitive behaviours, and strong sensory desires – an autistic young person’s difficulty with social communication can also increase the risks associated with learning about sex from porn. For example, a young person may have a very strong desire to experience sexual pleasure by re-enacting a porn scene they have watched repeatedly, but have limited awareness of how to negotiate that safely and consensually with a sexual partner.

Puberty is the time in our lives when hormones create a range of changes in our bodies according to our biological sex. Some autistic young people totally welcome puberty changes. Others hardly seem to notice them. Some are awkward or self-conscious. And others are very confused, upset or uncomfortable about the changes.

A strong desire to fit in with peers can also put autistic young people at risk of engaging in behaviours that we are not comfortable with, and that may be risky. For example, it can lead to difficulty recognising sexual boundaries and finding it hard to say ‘no’.

Understanding what we are feeling, ‘recognising our moods’ and knowing what our needs are can be hard to do. If we are focused on something of interest and not aware of a growing discomfort of some form – such as feeling hungry, thirsty, tired, frustrated or scared – by the time these feelings register, they may be very strong. As a result, we may behave differently from what is expected. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65d2ddf5d662de7fdcaa1379/1721624520849-V10G5IFEUH1JRASOCB5H/3.png Social media resources - Autistic young people and monotropism: Part 2 - Most autistic people need routine and predictability. Most of us as autistic individuals, prefer routine and predictability because it helps us to know what comes first, then next and so on. This means when things change suddenly, without warning, we can be really uncomfortable and even scared. If this is the case, we may resist the change and even close down, or become angry and upset.

This means that we tend to be trusting, and to believe what we hear and see. Taking words literally means that it can be difficult for autistic people to understand things like metaphor, exaggeration and sarcasm. It can also set them up for believing scripted and acted scenes, as if they are real. This can then affect what we expect from others and what we think others want from us.

Autistic young people’s brains are usually wired to notice one thing – or a small, related group of things – at any one time. Rapidly shifting our attention from one thing to another or focusing on more than one thing at once is very difficult. In autism this is called being ‘monotropic’. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65d2ddf5d662de7fdcaa1379/1718245905637-BWKSTHOQ2B0NV0AW51N3/4.png Social media resources - Autistic young people and monotropism: Part 1 Understanding monotropism is important for supporting autistic young people on issues like technology, puberty, sexuality and pornography's influence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65d2ddf5d662de7fdcaa1379/1718245911178-1K0EYA01RT84V6MVEAVZ/5.png Social media resources - Autistic young people and monotropism: Part 1 - How monotropism impacts ways of thinking If we think of being mono as a train running on a single track, rather than a car that can change direction quickly, and cross lanes or turn corners, we can understand how single track thinking will impact other ways of thinking.

For autistic people, being monotropic means that our external sensing system can easily become overloaded or underwhelmed. If we are feeling overloaded, noises may seem too loud, sights may be too bright, or there may be too many sensory inputs all at once!
