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”.

    You have no less right to exist than anyone else. Socializing is tough and breakdowns are the worst. Try not to beat yourself up about that. If you feel you need to step back then do so but I hope you won’t be away too long.

    Remember, people sometimes comment without giving a second thought (see above lol, sorry) so try to give them equally little thought when they trouble you.

    Edit: also, I was browsing all and thought this was the general autism community when initially commenting, otherwise I wouldn’t have said anything, sorry
