minus-squareRachelhazideas@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up26·2 months agoPeople when autistic boys have mental shutdowns: haha it’s so quirky when he hyperfixates. People when autistic girls have mental shutdowns: what a bitchy and emotional teenager. She’s not even autistic she just does it for attention.

minus-squareouthouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up15·2 months agoDude this is about tye gendered double standard in mental illness. It is a thing, and for autistic women it hurts that we don’t have funny stories about our trauma like this and it sucks. The reaction to autistic men (here) is perfectly reasonable. We want that. Fuck off with your misogynist bullshit.
minus-squareTonyOstrich@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up23·2 months agoReally? Because I just got whipped with a switch or a belt when I had my little boy autistic meltdowns.
minus-squarehungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 months agoYeah, while there is definitely often sexism involved in how autistic girls and women vs autistic boys and men are treated, it’s not like any flavor of autism or anyone’s autistic meltdown is treated well…
minus-squareouthouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·2 months agoWell yes. Thats how we do eqiality i guess. Like the way we’re closing the eating disorder gap!

No. It’s about concrete.
