I'd pursue a different avenue honestly. Autism as I understand it is a difference in brain development, it is not something you can cause by wanting.
Your same logic has previously been tried on gay men too varying levels of insistence, it hasn't stuck yet.
Autistic people somewhat commonly experience Alexithymia, which is an inability to understand their own feelings. The common example is an autistic person chronically dehydrated because they cannot identify their own sensation of thirst. Emotions are also physical sensations.
I think a much more promising angle is to look at incidence of Alexithymia and gender dysphoria.
