| I still don't have a diagnosis. Like you all said, it's much harder as a woman to be recognized as aspies, so I want to go straight to a specialist and it's a bit expensive. My parents will have to pay for it and I'm pretty scared on having to tell them I think I'm on the austistic spectruum. I mean... |

| "Thinks of herself as half-male half-female" I don't know about this. Having "male characteristics" okay, but identity is a completely different issue. Many identify as male, or neither, or female, or both... For instance, I have some male characteristics but I identify as 100% female. I see myself ... |

| Another theory is that it is easier for us to go away from the norm and choose other forms of self-expression, because we don't always recognize society's norms I particularly believe in this one. Society exaggerates the differences between men and women with stereotypes and pressure, and we aspies... |

| I am NOT playful with sexism, I deal with it quite head on, I do end up in trouble quite a bit especially online due to coming off so hard - many people actually take me for a TERF (if you are unfamiliar with the term, Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist ) which I can't really be since I have even ... |

| This poll is to see some correlation between mbti type - relations - diagnosis age. I'm curious because maybe the INT personality types is the way society sees aspies in general. It could impact in diagnosis age for instance and help us understand aspergers stereotypes in popular culture. I didn't i... |

This hypothesis:
NF - the empathic aspies - more like the intense world theory
NT - the "cold" aspies - more like traditional view of aspergers
How about this? |
