Oh, I would like to clarify I could see from the very beginning that the intention behind your message was ensuring this community was a safe space for people who had to escape from harmful ideologies.

I feel ashamed of existing and I struggle with socializing because of past experiences, not your messages. In the first message, you were trying to defend others. In the second message, you told me the problem behind the word.

However, due to my difficulties fitting in and experiencing breakdowns everytime I try socializing, I have to accept once again that it's best for me to step back.

Again, it's nobody's fault. Thank you all and have a good weekend.

Hello, I apologize for not realizing about the problems around the use of the term 'female', thanks for explaining.

Yesterday, I just learnt about Feminine autism after a neuropsychologist mentioned it to me. He said 'feminine', because of the gender-cultured reasons contributing to underdiagnosis in women and LGBTIQ individuals too.

That's the reason I am doing my best to understand by reading in communities as r/AutismInWomen, and noticing the need for safe spaces due to issues with the male autistic community.

Still, I just would like to note that some individuals new to minority-based communities may be new to the language on itself and have this double struggle with social interactions leading to "double exclusion" in certain situations, e.g. in the LGBTIQ+ community.

I promise my intentions are not bad, but I can struggle for hours to communicate a simple idea effectively and still do an epic fail. Sorry.

sorry, could you explain? is it about the polemic semantic weight in the word 'female'?

i feel "non-binary/fluid" most of the time but i didn't socialize enough to use some words correctly.

oh, you mean like Barnum Effect? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_effect)

i don't know what is normal anymore... i always thought i was neurotypical, common, but i got BPD diagnosed, bullied, stigmatised because of these 'completely normal human things'. yesterday i was told it could be a feminine Aspie.

sorry... i'm ashamed, but it's just my fault, i couldn't understand. thanks for your comment.

Hello,

I wanted to share this list I learnt about by scrolling Reddit.

The author of this list, Samantha Craft, from The Art of Autism website, has created a list of features Autistic women may feel identified with.

It seems Samantha has shared this list for other Asperger women to see if they relate to these traits and comment about the features they may have in common.

There are a total of around 8-10 sections focusing on different areas of life, like personality, inner world, socialization, sensitivity, executive disfunction...

I will share my thoughts in the comment section to keep the original post 'neutral' enough.

Have a good day.

EDIT2: i will change the original title in the blog post from "Females with Autism" to "Autism in Women".

it's a bit hypocritical that big companies complain about piracy when they are no better than Blackbeard, xxx-sama and Akainu combined.

i mean, they have hijacked the system so they can set the rules, their lawyers are law crackers, they take advantages of artists to buy their copyright for pennies and making millions of it, they scam us with DLC's, fees, dark patterns; they steal our private info, images, text creations, etc. to sell it or use it for AI development; and they also limit our access to the internet and technology by banning third party apps, modding, using anything related to their patents...

sorry but if i was a law enforcer, they would be the first ones i would chase after.
