Open mindedness and respect for those that disagree seem to have left our culture and are eroding even some scientific thought. In the same vain of learning most when you fail.
Having heard the anger directed at this podcast - I decided to listen for myself. I find myself in a different place than most. Cancel culture is bad especially in science and academic endeavour.. I feel your podcast came from a good place of wishing to speak uncomfortable truths. I was disappointed in the format. Given the nature of public discourse you had/have the opportunity - to make a counter argument. With an academic of more modern nature to be considered now. Of course this is your podcast to do with as you must. In my view though you have a responsibility to interview an adult neuropsychologist in order that both points are heard especially given the contentious nature of this. If you dont know who - may I suggest you approach Dr. Trevor Powell.
This seems really relevant, thank you for the initiative. I’ve been on quite a journey with this one (currently waiting for ADOS results for a family member). I feel that labels are readily allocated, but open and productive exploration of what they actually mean for the individual (and their family) in the short and long term is stunted. Meaningful support is also negligible, unless you can afford it. I look forward to listening.
I don’t agree with platforming researchers with no lived experience, whose views are harmful to those WITH lived experience, who also are ignoring all the research that does for example show that masking is harmful. I am an adult who was undiagnosed and unsupported, and I masked and felt completely unsafe, and it affects my life greatly today.
Thanks for the opportunity to examine complexity and nuance around what it is to be human….on this planet…with the arc we’ve experienced in our species’ evolution. If you’re interested in discussing perspectives of ecologic reciprocity, relational neurodevelopment, interdependence and cooperation
Is this a rhetorical question, or are you really asking? Your bio says psychologist so I assume you know why humans do this. It isn’t limited to the autistic community. I don’t want to go on a long explanation if this is rhetorical because it takes a long time to get the words together.

Women will die via your choice to embrace a self-loathing misogynist and fascist extremism.

Can’t wait to listen! I have someone who might be interested in being interviewed. What’s the best way to get in touch?
