If you feel anxious about it, we could make a smaller room, with just a couple of us if you might find it easier to talk like that.


That will make no difference. i get nervous with one person. But it's no biggie. I gonna do it people or no. can spend life in the comfort zone.

Thank you very much though for trying to to accomidate me though. It so nice to have others that are willing to accomidate my difficulties. Of course that is the whole idea behind this site.

I know what you mean about neurodiversity as a word, but it was the most popular for people.
Its possible that the media will pick up on the meaning and explain it to people.

perhaps you can make a poster explain what it is and what it means.

I am old enough to remember when people were confused by what feminism meant.
(admittedly some still are).


I am not confused by the term feminism. I perfer to use the term Woman's Liberation, or perhaps even gender liberation (the freedom from restrictive and/or demeaning gender roles).

If supporter of womans lib are called feminists, would supporters of the Autistic movement be called Autismists? And would the topic we discussing be Autismism? :wink:
