I think part of the issue is the presentation of autistic people in media within a pretty narrow range. There's also the issue of motivation to learn. Having grown up not seeing myself as autistic, I hadn't really the motivation to properly explore until a consultant said I may have autistic traits.

@misaimed_brain @callunavulgaris @autistics Totally agree. It's one of the reasons why I am quite open about being autistic. People need to understand that we come in all shapes and sizes to encourage them to understand how different we can be, not just from them, but from each other.
