as an audhd trans woman ive always wondered whether people like me present more like autistic boys or girls as kids. im kind of afraid to look too hard because i dont want to feel invalidated, but i suspect we present more like girls. no one had any idea i was neurodivergent as a kid, which is more typical of autistic girls for a variety of reasons.
From my experience with early ages children who are autistic, I relate so much more to the girl’s experiences.
I definitely presented more like an autistic boy as a kid, so feel free to invalidate me 😅
I officially invalidate you.
Hope you feel sufficiently invalidated, no refunds.
Yeah, delete my comment, I'm not a real woman /j
Me neither, so please also delete my comment /nojoke
OMG I've got this one, different cover though!
I think I read it almost in one go and didn't give up half way through, which is a huge achievement for me
It really helped me understand my autism and explained so many of my difficulties as a child, teenager etc
Spoiler alert, the chapter on older women with autism is very thin, as let's face it we are a small, under diagnosed demographic, but here we are!
Weirdly, I've been thinking a lot recently of women on the margins of society historically, the spinsters, widows, the women who choose live alone because they function differently, and how they've been either ridiculed or treated with hostility and violence
I think I'm beginning my witchy part of life, and I intend to fully embrace it 🧙
edit, forgot to mention, she has some really good videos on YouTube if you find it easier than reading
Thank you so much, that’s helpful! And I know what you mean. I’m also entering my crone era, and fucks are hard to come by.
There's an epub in Anna's (.gl) if you prefer.
Good luck!
Thank you!
