A Headcanon Named Autism: In defence of finding our own representation. Let’s start with a trip down memory lane. When I was in Sixth Form, I studied Tennessee Williams’. A Streetcar Named Desire. Though I didn’t know it at the time, I’d accidentally reinvented the autistic headcanon. 8220;Stop glorifying/romanticising autism! They say, just like they do whenever we talk about autism as anything other than the horrifying-tragic-burden portrayed by organisations like Autism Speaks. 8220;just fiction”.

Laquo; A Headcanon Named Autism: In defence of finding our own representation. Expectations, Expectations Everywhere! Sometimes, We Don’t Say Anything. On August 14, 2015. Maybe I’m stating the obvious here, but most women don’t actually mention every single sexist thing that happens to them. Sometimes we confront it directly, sometimes we vent to a friend, sometimes we talk about it online, but a lot of the time… nothing. Sometimes, we think to ourselves, it’s. 8220;not worth it”. 8220;not all men”.
