Would you support there being a forum, where all the "cure" related threads can go. General Autism Discussion just gets loaded with such threads each day. Perhaps titled "autism and identity" or something.

I don't think there is any need for that. It would cause crowding, and I think it's fine the way it is.

I think such threads should just be relocated Autism Politics, Activism, and Media Representation.

I voted no because I think the Art, Writing and Music sub forum is a more appropriate place to discuss The Cure.

I just looked. So far as I can see, at a glance, there is just the one "'cure' related thread", on the front page 50 threads of General Autism Discussion forum. That thread, started by you, is at about position 30, so it looks as if it will be leaving that front page fairly shortly.

I think they belong in the 'activism' category, or that's where you usually find them.
