I did type out a long reply to this, but it seeming got lost somehow.

You know that urban myth where a happy couple announce their engagement to the flight attendant and get free champagne?

I was actually taking about the spectrum with my lad yesterday, linked to the study I read claiming that the current labels are too specific, and that measures should be in place for individuals, not diagnoses.

My son fidgets when excited, fiddles with things when bored etc, yet the clinical team didn’t declare him ADD/ADHD.

My son, diagnosed Asperger’s, has hyperfocus.

Non US citizen, and never been to the US, though I do have family in Texas.

Right on the money, IMO.

To be pretty blunt about it, from my personal experience - those who deny sexism exists are the ones guilty of doing it. Same for homophobia in the workplace.

And again, I never claimed anyone was misrepresenting anything.

There we go again, you seem to be interpreting my comments, in your own way, on behalf of other people.

Sorry to just jump in here, but this, amongst the sea of comments, actually stands out as the best.

Well, for starters, I didn’t belittle anyone, I clearly used the words “unfortunate” and “please don’t.”

You clearly misunderstand the internet.

Which, in that case was sexist.
