MIGHT I ADD: Homosexuality is Very easy to conceal whereas for many of us, our AS is blatantly Obvious. EVEN when we try to pass for normal.
I have tried for 31 years to pass for normal/not autistic and I still haven't got it right.
Thats why the Aspie Movement should be modeled on the Black Power movement instead of the attention seeking gay pride movement.
Why do we need a "movement"? How about educating and advocating? Doesn't need to be "in your face".
We need a Movement to form an interest coalition because That is how you get things done! 
Without an interest coalition, NTs simply have no incentive to treat us fairly. People are naturally inclined to dislike and mistreat those they see as being different, UNLESS of course there is a social incentive not to do so. THAT is what gays and to some extent what blacks have managed to accomplish and the way they did it was to ORGANIZE into a group.
And that is the Crux of the problem - actually organising into an advocacy group. It's been my experience that aspie forums are very subject to regular misunderstandings and infighting and so it would be very tricky to organise into an effective lobby group.
An IRL group could be effective. Best of all there are big organisations that exist, the challenge is to turn them into groups actually for people on the spectrum, as opposed a parents group.
