I do not think that if you are irritated by tags it necessarily means that you are autistic. I get irritated by tags and I have been tested for autism and I am not autistic. I am not completely neurotypical in other ways though.

Wait, being irritated by tags in shirt is an autism thing? I just thought it was a pretty common kid thing…

Big doubt this person is on the severe on the autism disorder spectrum and is just a social media user seeking engagement.
No one likes obnoxious tags.

I don’t like the tags (end of discussion). = No sympoms here
I don’t like the tags and I LITERALLY cannot wear anything man made unless the tags are cut = Symptom right here.

I still get irritated by tags in my shirt if they are by my neck

Yeah, but as adults we start to just declare we are going to suck it up more.

Yeah, fuck that. I tear out tags, or cut them off. Some t-shirts actually come tag-less or put the tag at the bottom.
The older I get (I’m 54) I find the less tolerance I have for bullshit.

I don’t think anyone likes them, but maybe autistic people are more likely to absolutely detest them. I know my partner certainly does; she cuts them out of every shirt she wears… Including some of mine, unfortunately.
