What gender stereotypes surround autism? What can we do help represent ALL autistic people? What is it like to work for the National Autistic Society?

In this episode, Thomas talks to an award-winning poet and Content Officer at the National Autistic Society... Hermione Cameron (@Hermirony1). They focus their conversation around the importance of expressive arts, the depression metaphor of the Dementors in Harry Potter, but mainly on their opinions on gender stereotypes around autism.

We talk about the vicious cycles in anxiety and depression, and how they interact with autism, but we also dive into the inherent differences between men and women!

Male Vs Female bullying, research bias towards the problems of being autistic, the extreme male brain, and how to approach controversial topics in a social setting. With kindness and productive conversation at the forefront, this is an episode that definitely gets into the nitty-gritty parts of society that we often shy away from...
