Text of the page (random words):
urodivergent though some don t consider that particular condition found in only about 100 people in the world to fall under the neurodivergent umbrella the term refers to more than a few of us who ve spent years masking because we felt and still do alien to others and it was just easier to pretend to get what everyone else did i masked my depression for years but hey my trauma makes me funny as have many others i inherited my grandpa s ability to do math in my head though that s waned a bit since my stroke in 2015 and my fascination with sociology behavioral research is likely related as well because i ve always wanted to understand how normal people react to things i d like to seek an autism assessment but it can be prohibitively costly as is a lot of mental health care which is a real shame because mental health care is essential cosplaying as a person is how i feel 95 percent of the time image found on reddit if i do turn out to be autistic i would be far from the only woman or adult diagnosed later in life autism speaks notes that classic diagnosis tools were built around male behavior which doesn t surprise me in grad school i served as camera person for a psychology professor who was doing a study of an autistic boy and how his teachers handled his behaviors at no time did the professor ever mention autistic girls autism doesn t always look the same in girls as it does in boys notes the website girls and women may show fewer obvious repetitive behaviors they may have stronger conversational skills or be more likely to share their interests with others their special interests may appear typical for their age and therefore go unnoticed i think that sometimes examples of behavioral features in autism like a strong interest in trains and spending a long time lining them up are less commonly recognized in females says dr vanessa bal expert in adult autism and professor of psychology at rutgers university parallel examples in girls like a strong interest in barbies and spending a long time arranging them is often not recognized due to differences in expectations social expectations also play a role from a young age girls are often encouraged to be socially aware and accommodating many learn to carefully observe others and copy their behaviors even when social interactions feel confusing or exhausting this is often called masking masking can include forcing eye contact holding back stimming behaviors copying other people s facial expressions or rehearsing what to say before a conversation while masking can help someone fit in it can also be draining research shows that long term masking is linked to higher rates of anxiety depression stress and even suicidal thoughts why is this me image found on reddit while masking can help someone navigate social situations it often comes at a cost studies link long term masking to anxiety depression chronic stress and even suicidality it can also delay diagnosis sometimes for decades because outward signs of autism are less visible to teachers clinicians and even family members masking can also make autism harder to recognize teachers doctors and even family members may not see the signs clearly as a result many girls without intellectual disability or language delays are missed or diagnosed with something else such as anxiety or adhd that can have real consequences delayed diagnoses can mean that autistic people have to work harder to get the right supports and may miss out on critical early intervention services that could have a lifelong impact on their quality of life i ve always been one of those women who can at least for short periods mask what i m really feeling and my often abject terror of having to deal with people i don t know even people i do know i can only take in small bites sometimes because my social battery runs down quickly that doesn t mean i or any other woman is less capable of doing complex things not that it matters to some as one troll commented on my column last week regarding my comment that the world isn t exactly fun for women the neurodivergent and others saying bs those listed are the most coddled and protected people in america today mozarky is a real piece of work for many reasons informing him that it appears white christian males are the actual most coddled and protected people might make his head explode no proof of this coddling was offered but i imagine that in his mind it would include the fact that those people have any rights at all i would remind him that more rights for others doesn t mean that your rights decrease it s not pie are work and social accommodations for disabilities coddling are curb cuts in sidewalks for people in wheelchairs or using mobility aids coddling is it coddling if a woman and or person of color or lgbtq community member gets a job over a white male when they have the same qualifications or more and for more strained logic how is it inherently dangerous to allow trans women in women s bathrooms what in the world do men think women are doing in bathrooms we have locking stall doors women just want to use the toilet and can do so in privacy because we don t use open urinals and it s not a locker room so we re not changing clothes most of the time and if we are it s in those locked stalls it s far more dangerous for trans women to be in men s restrooms the problem in both cases tends to be cis men not trans women why not add more women s bathrooms we don t seem to have potty parity judging by the longer lines seen at women s public restrooms with more bathrooms and more locked stalls it would help all women cis and trans editorial cartoon by dan wasserman boston globe as rockford sexual assault counseling notes on its website many times when someone is arguing that trans people need to use the bathroom or changing room of the gender they were assigned at birth they state that it is to protect women from men coming into the bathroom and hurting them they allege that the problem is that men may pretend to be transgender in order to enter these spaces and harm women this reasoning implies that it is not actual trans people causing the problem but cis men trying to take advantage this fake trans argument overlooks a few important points it already contradicts itself logically from the start if the real issue is men pretending to be trans how would stopping actual trans women from going into female only spaces do anything trans women have been using female bathrooms and changing rooms for decades plus men that want to hurt women in these areas have not been trying to dress up as women to do so they can just walk in they are already breaking the law having additional laws does nothing to deter this violence all it does is harm an already vulnerable population pack is utterly ridiculous and often uses this tactic which is logically fallacious and is absolutely not what tracy said click to embiggen since no one flogging the bathroom of your birth genitals laws what about those whose genitals are ambiguous at birth seems to consider trans men i found a recent report out of kansas quite amusing with three bearded and burly trans men wearing shirts reading sb244 compliance crew t shirts entering the women s bathroom at a water park and other places as the law demanded the reaction was predictable and showed just how utterly absurd such laws are besides i hear a lot of folks have gender inclusive bathrooms in their own houses what is this world coming to wouldn t batman use a batroom that s for you laurence image
