anakuroma 's review for:
Camouflage: The Hidden Lives of Autistic Women
by Sarah Bargiela
TW: examples of ableism, bullying, gaslighting, disbelief of symptoms, mention of suicide, mentions of Hans Asperger
My thought reflect C. G Drew's review here already, but I'll add that this should probably rather be titled as describing autism that is undiagnosed in all folk who are not cis boys or men, since all research and diagnosis methods are based on cis boys. As another author, Devon Price, said, I'd argue that it should rather be called 'masked autism' than female autism. (https://twitter.com/drdevonprice/status/1420416414507282437?s=19)
AutisticSciencePerson also did a great thread on why we should not seperate autism by binary genders, as it leaves out trans women and trans men, non binary folk and even cis folk who's autism displays differently. https://twitter.com/AutSciPerson/status/1420208562282897411?s=19
