After an academic friend told how her parents didn't tell her about her diagnosis of Asperger's, I like this article about autistic females.

Grateful to our own shehasathree for linking to the article. What are your feelings or thoughts?

gender, people: susan wendell, conditions: autistic spectrum, people: tony attwood

Glad you like it! May I virtually borrow one of your armchairs?

If you want to--"velvet" is an extremely generous description, though. They're actually kind of scratchy.
