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”.

    Wow those points are… very unspecific. Like completely normal human things. Almost like the stuff found in a horoscope. Everyone will identify with that.

      oh, you mean like Barnum Effect? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_effect)

      i don’t know what is normal anymore… i always thought i was neurotypical, common, but i got BPD diagnosed, bullied, stigmatised because of these ‘completely normal human things’. yesterday i was told it could be a feminine Aspie.

      sorry… i’m ashamed, but it’s just my fault, i couldn’t understand. thanks for your comment.
