Update: I replaced the header image, now people can complain about the actual research instead of the thumbnail.

Also, before any more guys respond with gatekeepy opinions about my conclusions, try reading the paper first.

It's perfectly valid because they're not experts on this subject. I don't think so. And I've become something of an expert on the subject of me.

The real thinking about Autism is coming from autistics.

Neurotypicals already have a problem getting out of the way of their biases, and I think it's multiplied in the case of Neurodiverse.

My official diagnosis was not paid for by my health insurance because "there's nothing we can do about it."
