I welcome:
Autistic adults, yet not all Autistics identify (or are identified) as Autistic.
Many of us don’t even know that we are autistic, and some of us reject the label altogether – with its distorted representations of what it means to be autistic which render us unrecognizable to ourselves and each other. If you suspect that you may be autistic but hesitate to self-identify, or if you have been identified as autistic yet morally object to identitarian modes of relating, representing, and communicating, you are welcome here.
