Abstract
- The author explores the theoretical and practical implications of the co-occurrence of autism and attention deficit hyperactivitiy disorder (ADHD) and the gendered omission of women and girls in diagnoses. She talks about the missing elements from the diagnostic criteria for autism and ADHD and the need to research on neurodivergent individuals. She calls for an overhaul of the society, institutions, behavior and attitudes toward neurodivergent individuals and to tackle oppressive structures.
