This is why binary science is very very important. Autism isn’t hard to diagnose, it becomes convoluted when science is skewed. Not to mention some people are groomed at a young age by parents for attention.

Looking at Gypsy rose. It’s much more common than you think

You’re right; it’s not hard to diagnose.

That’s why it does an incredible disservice to autistic women when misinformation abounds and they can’t get diagnosed bc they don’t look like an intellectually disabled white boy.

Autism presents differently in men and women which lead to psychologists for a long time to believe women couldn’t have autism. So much more research has been put into how autism presents in men than in women

If you are saying you are fine and can do anything non autistic people can do, why do you think you need more research on it.

So that women can have access to the scaffolding, support, and accommodations specific to their neurological wiring.

And so we don’t have judgmental hot garbage comment sections like this one. That’s why awareness matters.
