Noone else thought that was interesting? I guess my take on media representation is one of a kind too. That's alright. I like that she's thinking outside the box in the world she's in and that she's pursuing an active study of autism instead of lamenting it in her two sons. I don't care that I don't agree with her every thought.
BTW you can ignore the second part, that's just me being preoccupied, I'll find someone myself. |

Finding something interesting and having something to say about it, are two different things. I find the article interesting, nothing I did not either know or suspect, but the article is easy to read, informative, and seemingly well balanced. If I have any coment I guess it is that more such articles (well written, informative and dealing with precisely this topic) are desirable and would be beneficial.
I cannot really say much about your other issue because you have not said where you are. I only know personally of one person who diagnoses in adults. I do not know that they have any particular interest or specialty in women, but they were able to very readily ascertain that I have Asperger Syndrome (and I am a woman). I suspect though that you are probably in a different country to me. If you state where you are (country at least) your question is more likely to produce a useful answer. Good luck; it can be difficult finding someone to answer this particular question when one is an adult woman, but (hopefully) it’s getting better as time goes on, and I do believe articles like the one you have linked are making positive contributions in that respect. |

Thank you Pandd! Glad you enjoyed it.
I didn't post a location because I really don't mind, I'm expecting to travel. I was just curious to find out what there is to know. But I think I'll have to figure it out myself. |
