Even if an autist does approach people in an extroverted manner, it is, as far as I know, the case that their sensitivity to stimuli will soon limit the time of their social interaction even if they were being extroverted for a while (I even do it myself sometimes). I believe that such an insensitivity to prolonged social interaction is a fundamental part of introversion but correct me if I'm wrong.
Do you know in what sense 'sensitivity' was meant, though? It's just that people don't solely use the word in relation to social interaction or sensory stimulation. I've also heard it used to describe people in what I guess is an emotional sense, too.
