happy autism acceptance month. this month, regardless if you're abled or disabled, allistic or autistic, try to consider if you really do accept people with autism. all aspects of autism. people who:
without volume control
talk to themselves or make sounds (seemingly) at random
have huge screaming meltdowns
stim any way, including smearing body fluids
only talk about one subject and will never "move on"
stare inappropriately
struggle with personal hygiene
are unemployed
who left education early ("dropped out")
has a carer and will always need one
don't use mouth words to communicate
have comorbid intellectual disability and don't want to separate that from their autism
autism acceptance month can't truly be about acceptance if we don't broaden our understanding of autism and confront our internal biases. these things listen above are normal parts of autism. sometimes very common. there's stigma around them, but that's stigma we can actively fight.
