"Social construct" theory
I moved this theory out of the "Discredited theories" section. No source was provided for the claim that it has been discredited. You can't call a theory "discredited" unless you (at a minimum) you have a reliable source calling it that. (Really, to call a theory "discredited", you want multiple high quality reliable sources saying that; a bar which is rather easy to reach for vaccine-related theories, but I don't think it is going to be reached for social constructionist theories.)

"individuals with autism have significantly reduced fecundity"
this came to me as a surprise, I've never heard of this before and can't seem to find any sources for it. I've looked at the references for that sentence and didn't find any mention of reduced fecundity, nor a "20 times less likely to have children" figure. should this passage be removed?

 * this suggests significantly reduced fecundity (which, to be fair is not unexpected), thought I don't see the 20x figure. Black Kite (talk) 18:48, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
