I came across another post that needs updating. I find that I don’t want to totally remove these types of references and stuff because they remind me of how deep the denial and depression of my true self ran, and how I attempted to pretend so much…

 

I am a proud Âûtistic man woman. I am what I am and I am an Âûtistic man woman.

Some would say why be proud? I say are you not proud of who you are.

I am proud that I perceive the world in the way I do!

I am proud that as you focus on the small talk I focus on things important!

I am proud that I do not need a cure.

I am proud that I could never consider inflicting dangerous treatments upon myself or my children!

I am proud, I am proud, I am proud.

I can look into the detail and find an issue! I can stick with a task and find a solution.

I can be who I am without too much concern about how I may look whilst I do it.

I am proud that I can remember many facts with a near encyclopaedic accessibility.

I am proud, I am proud, I am proud.

I am proud to walk in the footsteps of other great Âûtistics

I am proud to speak out for justice and advocacy for others who may not be able to make their voice heard in the same way.

I am proud to be a part of a wonderful neurodiverse community.

I am proud, I am proud, I am proud.

I am a proud Âûtistic man woman. I am not, I never will be a neurotypical man woman. I can not I never can be a neurotypical man woman. I don’t want and never will want to be a neurotypical man woman.

I am a proud Âûtsitic man womanI am.

I am a proud Âûtistic man woman, proud to call my Âûtistic community my tribe, proud to have brought into the world two more Âûtistics and one more Neurotypical to exist in our world.

I am a proud Âûtistic man woman and I will declare it with pride for as long and as loud as is necessary for it to be a world where that difference is not relevant.

I am a proud Âûtsitic man woman I am.
