"Can Hot People be Autistic?" — Why Autism Doesn't Look Like What You Think
2w ago00:31:01Tap to summarizeCan hot people be autistic? It started as an unserious question and turned into a deeply serious one. In this episode, I get into the halo effect — the cognitive bias that makes us assume attractive people have it together — and why that bias is part of the reason so many women, AFAB folks, and "high-functioning" adults go undiagnosed for decades. We're talking masking, misdiagnosis, the BPD-to-autism pipeline, what late diagnosis actually feels like, and why "high-functioning" might just mean "skilled at acting." If you've ever felt like everyone else got a manual you never received, this one's for you.Info@maniccandice.com
