impulsiveness does not correlate to being unable to consent. children can't consent because they have less understanding about the world and because their brains arent even formed well enough to understand it to that degree and are easily manipulatable. impulsive adhd people can still understand everything, unlike a kid, we just are also impulsive.
As an adult with ADHD, does that mean I can't consent? My gf will be very upset to learn she's been taking advantage of me
seems like the more important part

This is a very reasonable response to what I thought was an obvious joke
