Autistic perspective

Autism has historically been defined by those who were not autistic. As more autistic people are diagnosed the autistic community continues to grow. The world is starting to learn what autistic people are experiencing and what autism is first hand and not as an interpretation of behaviors and their meaning by those limited by a perspective that is outside of the autistic perspective.
