I wonder how many gay people are actually transgender & dont know it because people thing being transgender is transitioning when it’s literally just not being cis.

Moomin (1990) 1x21, “Snufkin Leaves Moomin Valley”

this scene is chock full of more evidence of Autistic Snufkin!!

the Moomin family & friends are inside dancing together. meanwhile,  Pappa realizes that Snufkin is standing alone on their front porch, his back to the door. perhaps Snufkin planned to knock and come in once he’s enjoyed watching the rain a while – it reminds me of how i do some extra stimming and make sure to get some solitude before going to an event i know will be loud and crowded. he’s preparing himself now to help keep sensory overload at bay.

Moominpappa initiates some small talk about the weather. but like some autistic folks, Snufkin doesn’t seem interested in that idle chitchat – he acknowledges Pappa’s remark with a simple, one-word “yes,” but then switches to the topic he wants to talk about: the activity going on in the house. maybe he had planned on coming in immediately, but when he heard all the commotion from inside he decided to stay out until he could gather more information on what to expect. a lot of us autistics like to be well-informed in that way. and here’s Moominpappa, someone who can tell him what’s going on!

once Pappa satisfies Snufkin’s need for information, Snufkin moves straight on to a new subject, once that he perseverates on throughout the episode: the oncoming winter. Moominpappa is clearly startled by the sudden change of subject, going “huh?” and pausing before he replies. to him, it seems like a non sequitur. but for an autistic person, going ahead and saying what you want to say without worrying about conversational conventions is totally normal.

when they get inside, Snufkin stands quietly instead of greeting everyone. i feel like he’s just absorbing all the sights and sounds, letting himself get used to it. then when Moomin calls out hello to him, Snufkin replies not with any words but a tiny wave; Snufkin tends to be a man of few words anyway, but it could be that all the sensations at once are making it hard for him to talk.

Snufkin turns Little My down when she asks if he’ll dance with her. perhaps he just doesn’t like dancing. it might be that adding someone touching him to all the other sensations currently bombarding him would be Too Much; he’ll keep on taking it all in quietly, thank you very much. and Little My is totally fine with that!

finally, when the record player breaks down and everyone is disappointed, Snufkin offers to help…

the gratitude they all feel (especially smitten lil’ Moomintroll!) is evident. Snufkin has found a way to join their fun in his own way – not by having to dance like the rest of them, but by playing his harmonica like he loves to do.

the Moomins love and appreciate their autistic friend Snufkin. they always give him the space he needs, and in doing so they get to enjoy his unique gifts!

what do you think?
