Ci: No offense, but could you work a little with your "commas"? i find it difficult at times to get your point because of it.
I understand the necessity to point out the negative, but thats been the major focus through all of it. If thats all they want to put out there, then thats what people will learn. And when you tell someone you've got a form of autism, either all the negative sides they've learned of will be automatically assumed to apply to you, or they'll think "No, you ain't got it, because you don't match what I've learned". (Generally speaking)
I cannot really figure out all the commas to well. I understand your concern and I explain it is a spectrum and I am not a disorder label and they are speaking of the specific disorder label to help treat symptoms that are more debilitating where applicable like inability to speak. News media is a good example of where they have shown the diversity and gifts. Other then that I have the right to privacy but I choose to be a public advocate.
I have been in the media numerous times and they were never negative about me about my autism. It seems to be about context some disputes relevant to awareness.
