In general, women get much more positive reinforcement than men do. This is especially true when it comes to having bad social skills/autism. women can get away with having bad social skills, and still get treated well. if a female is shy due to autism, that's considered cute by many guys, and they will still love her for it. if a male is shy due to autism, he's a loser and a social reject.
It's much harder to overcome the social issues caused by autism if you get negative reinforcement from society. autistic females get positive reinforcement from society, so are better able to overcome their social anxiety, and thus less likely to receive an autism diagnosis.
this also relates to a thread I saw earlier: https://incels.is/threads/women-wit...d-much-better-by-society.149738/#post-5998982
if autistic women are diagnosed with autism despite all the positive reinforcement they get, it makes sense that their case is more severe than normal, leading to this finding.
