Autism, women's style.
*Better terminology pending - it's not really about gender! We're talking about autism that most people don't recognise, generally characterised by excellent masking skills, broad interests and late diagnosis. Possibly the 'masking phenotype'.
(Got better words? get in touch, we clearly need some!)

Who are we?
We are a group of adult women and similar who experience autism in a non-stereotypical way.
We identify on the spectrum, whether or not we are formally diagnosed.
We want to support and help each other and anyone else on this journey
- figuring out what non-stereotypical autism really is and how to live it well!
We are a grassroots movement and support system - run by autistic women for autistic women.
