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”.
I can identify with quite a few of these, although a few freak me out. #9 treated friends as pawns in youth… oh goodness I hope I did not, I don’t think I did!
Personally I feel as a girl (vs boys) I feel I was taught to be sensitive to others people’s feelings, while simultaneously being autistic and not understanding the feelings and always saying the wrong thing. Cursed
