“If they interrupt those whose opinions don't matter to their job or lives when they are speaking, they have bad social skills. If they interrupt their boss, those bad social skills aren't associated with power heirarchies in which you only disrespect those below you. If they don't even recognize that there is a power dynamic in play, they are probably autistic.“

I once worked with a man who didn’t seem to be autistic, but who would interrupt women who outranked him. He didn’t do the same with men who outranked him, so I think it was a sexism thing.
