Writers end up writing about their obsessions. Things that haunt them; things they can’t forget; stories they carry in their bodies waiting to be released.
Buy cute, cheap lace leggings. Cut them a little above your knee. Hem them or don’t, but then you can wear them under your sundresses and not worry about how you sit or if your thighs chafe, and if anyone sees them they look cute af so hell yes
Of course you could. Or write a novel. You are concise and know how to actually utilize vocabulary unlike a large percent of “authors” out there. Go for it.
Well, I am working on a novel. I’ve wanted to be a writer since I was five years old. Now I just need the confidence to actually send my babies into the world.
I saw that on Diana's Facebook today and I was so excited for you, also I totally agree with you that Sam's was the more challenging side of the interaction. There is nothing more difficult in this world than being truly vulnerable.
Why does it take forever for the dish anywhere app to upload outlander??? I can't use stars play because the dish network login doesn't give me access! Dammit why don't I know anyone who can share their starz play login?
This is literally the most amazing thing I've ever seen. And yet in all historical accounts of the Apollo program the only women who get any attention are the astronauts wives.
#OKAY BUT WHILE SHE IS RUNNING HER HAND OVER HIS TATTOO #LOOK AT HIS THUMB #HE IS STROKING HER THIGH #HE IS JUST LYING THERE LETTING HER TOUCH HIS SCARS AND TATTOO WHILE LOOKING UP AT HER #HELP
I love how it all seems very tender yet so full of passion. They are literally exploring each other’s bodies. Oliver has been a man of sex gratification, but with Felicity, he explores and let’s her explore and it’s a beautiful thing. This isn’t just sex.
Expert says many more girls have autism than was thought, and failure to diagnose them can lead to misery
So, basically, what this article is saying is they discovered the way that boys present with autism, went “well that covers 100% of the population surely!” and then didn’t bother figuring out how autism presents in girls.
Girls slip through the diagnostic net, said Attwood, because they are so good at camouflaging or masking their symptoms. “Boys tend to externalise their problems, while girls learn that, if they’re good, their differences will not be noticed,” he said. “Boys go into attack mode when frustrated, while girls suffer in silence and become passive-aggressive. Girls learn to appease and apologise. They learn to observe people from a distance and imitate them. It is only if you look closely and ask the right questions, you see the terror in their eyes and see that their reactions are a learnt script.”
WOW.
Tony Attwood, founder of the first diagnostic and treatment clinic for children and adults with Asperger’s, and author of The Complete Guide to Asperger’s Syndrome, agreed with Gould’s estimation of a 2.5:1 ratio of boys to girls. “The bottom line is that we understand far too little about girls with ASDs because we diagnose autism based on a male conceptualisation of the condition. We need a complete paradigm shift,” he said.
WE FIGURED OUT HOW TO DIAGNOSE BOYS AND BECAUSE WE FIGURED THAT WOULD WORK FOR EVERYONE BECAUSE BOYS AND GIRLS ARE SO EXACTLY THE SAME (child psychology would DISAGREE WITH YOU IDIOTS) NOW WE’RE REAL SURPRISED THAT WE FUCKED UP.
This. This is a feminist issue. This is an issue like holy shit there are doctors out there who will deny a female patient who is referred to them because ‘lul girls don’t get austism’. They didn’t think to do any more research because, whatever right? We figured out how to solve the male side of the problem.
My daughter was diagnosed at three years old, but only because I have experience in early childhood education. The psychologist told us they very rarely catch aspergers in girls so young because parents and preschool teachers don't usually realize something is different.
