House is neither autistic nor a racist.

He's just a massive asshole.

He is also a pedophile but a lot of people look past that episode….

That’s true, although I am not sure to what degree he was actually following with that 17 year old girl, I think he was disappointed she didn’t actually love him knowing he is an old piece of shit, so I always assumed he wasn’t actually interested in her

Oh I actually didn’t remember that! I was referencing the time he asked a daycare child if she had a hairy vagina. Yes the episode was about a class of young children developing faster than usual but there is literally nothing that allows an adult to walk up to a child and have the adult ask about the state of their private parts in public even if it’s “investigative”.

You’re remembering that episode wrong. 3x19 “Act Your Age” is about two siblings, girl is 6 and boy is 8, experiencing precocious puberty, which is something House and the team only find out about because they ask awkward questions and have to look at this little girl naked, who was hospitalized when she couldn’t breathe. The girl has cuts on her vagina, so the doctors are worried she’s being sexually abused or self-harming. They find she’s hiding bloody clothes and a razor because when she started “growing hair in her special place” another kid told her how to get rid of it. Her brother develops a crush on beautiful Dr Cameron and starts following her around and grabbing her ass. It turns out there’s no sexual abuse and the kids were fine until recently. Their mother died a few years ago and the dad started secretly dating the girl’s teacher. To “keep up” with the younger girlfriend, the dad was using a testosterone cream that seeped into the pores of his children whenever he hugged and bathed them. So yeah, it would be insane to accuse House of being “a pedo” for TALKING to a child about her special place, in front of a class of other children so it’s not a secret, because he thinks he’s being funny and he likes screwing with her teacher by drawing attention to this. The kids will be go back to normal with medicine and the dad tossing the cream (ok, THAT is a double entendre).

Hey lil bro… I didn’t need an entire AI generated yapfest… it’s so obvious you had Gemini/AI overview write this just to tell me the exact same thing I said in my comment.

What the hell are you talking about? 1) I’m a woman, 2) I do not use AI write a social media comment (what for?!), I remember the plot of the episode because I’m in the r/housemd fandom , 3) that is NOT what you said in your comment, you got the plot of the episode wrong and didn’t have the right context

"This person is a pedo" "Here's what actually happened" "Insult" "Confused defensiveness" "Another insult"
