We grow up being told that anger is bad. Good girls do not express their anger, good girls play nice, they accommodate, they please. It is time we start looking at anger differently. Why are we so bent on suppressing this anger when for so many, it is the only emotion left in the face of injustice? Why should young women appear compliant and docile when they are obviously being subjected to violence or inequity? Why shouldn’t anger be a legitimate drive for our politics? Change will not come because we ask for permission, change will happen because we leave no other alternative.

About

Here you will find my experiences with autism, as well as the anxiety and depression that often come with it.

I want this to be a place of neurodiversity. I'm not an expert, but I welcome questions, thoughts and experiences from others. I want to respect all neurodivergences and that means refusing to reinforce ableism.

I don't use functioning language. Nor do I insult people on the basis of their intelligence, or equate intelligence with worth.

Outside of ableism, I also reblog posts about cissexism, heterosexism, racism, sexism, sizism and any other -isms that are taking place.

As a white cisgender guy I hold a lot of privileges, so I welcome call-outs when I get any of this wrong.

My personal posts tend to be in the actuallyautistic tag.

I can also be found at FY Stimming.
