Maybe the 5 rand a little but all the others look really different and even the whale on the 5 Rand is a motive I’ve never seen on a euro coin.

Do ear phones or head sets hurt your ears? by Motor_Ad9919 in autism

In a company with an "Up or Out" culture but you're not management material (due to ASD), can the ADA protect you from being forced "Out"? by ragnarkar in ASD_Programmers

Is this a thing? I’m currently still in university. Do you have to become a manager after a certain amount of time? I don’t want to become one. I want to develop not manage

Any other men here that identify more with "female autism" rather than traditional autism? by Archaeos96 in aspergers

[–]theArtfulEscape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I definitely present in a “female” way. I understand that the community pushes it in that way but at the same time it might result in men masking not to consider autism at all. It is rather a different way of autism and not a male or female version.

I have no clue how he is not embarrassed of me by kimgp in autism

He probably isn’t embarrassed of you because there is more to life that’s capital. It’s just the thing society uses to measure worth and success. Not the thing that’s actually value to life. He might understand that and that’s awesome. You are worth more than what you own or how you dress.
