Nevermind that they could be waiting until marriage or that one or both partners may not be comfortable with sex yet, especially if there's been past trauma.
I was upset about the lack of autistic leads in fiction who weren't ridiculously stereotyped, and I got a comment along the lines of, "Yeah... but I could see why, 'cause how can you emphasize with them if the writer themselves isn't neurotypical?" Nice to know that people can write about talking animals and purple aliens with Blue-And-Orange Morality just fine, but autistic people are too haaaaaaaaaaaaard to identify with.
