    did you ever consider that autistic women are a thing?

    if we ran our mouths as much as men do as if we’re experts on every subject, we’d experience severe professional consequences

        She’s trying to explain that socialization reflects these gender differences in how much/often people speak, despite sharing similar neurodivergent traits. Autistic women are told to shut up way more.

          But this was about mansplaining? I don’t recall commenting on ND women at all.

          I understand the frustration, but the absence of comment does not imply the opposite.

            The comment she’s responding to wasn’t yours. The one she’s responding to was about an autistic trait in general.

            I was clarifying the comment you said “Wat” to.
