Reddit reviews The Myth of Autism: Medicalising Men's and Boys' Social and Emotional Competence

The 'autism' name-calling smear was popularized by a psychiatrist, it is one of psychiatry's fictions.

Having not yet learned adequate, flowing, reading skills, is not a 'condition'. I reject the 'dyslexia' name-calling label too. I don't believe in 'learning disabilities'. If someone finds it subjectively hard to learn something or isn't learning something others want them to learn they are name-called 'learning disabled'. There is no proof they have an inability to learn if they are interested in learning the thing and the environment is good.

I couldn't care less what 'mainstream medicine' claims about the 'autism' name-calling label. There is no biological test for this fake 'medical condition'.

LOL 'neurodevelopmental', don't make me laugh. Prove a god damn thing about anybody's 'neuro' anything who has been name-called with the 'autism' smear.

You're a psychiatry believer. This will be our sole interaction, just to humor you. Obviously the negative effect of these girls being brainwashed to believe they have a 'medical condition' when no pathologist in the world can prove they do, is that they will be disempowered from willing themselves to improving their social skills etc, and fatalistic and feel they are the passive victims of an active 'condition'.

No child name-called 'autistic' in the history of man, has received that label based on an examination of their biology. A kid not 'talking enough' or being 'awkward' or 'not socially developing' is not evidence that their 'neuro' anything hasn't 'developed'.

I won't be replying. Stick around in the sub and learn for a few months why we don't believe in name-calling people whose bodies cannot be demonstrated to have any biological pathology with quackery-based labels, including the 'autism' label and the so-called 'dyslexia' label.

Doing things poorly, whether it be reading, making eye contact, speaking, interacting, thinking, believing, behaving, is not evidence of a 'neuro' god damn anything. Life is a limitless collection of skills and tasks and they all must be mastered, nurtured and improved for someone to be competent. Unless someone can prove there is something wrong with a kid's body, I say there is something wrong the kid's environment and the kid's choices and guidance. This entire fucking sub is about not mindlessly blaming the body for human conduct, not believing in bullshit fake diseases for which the only evidence is other peoples interpretations of behavior.

I vehemently oppose making so-called 'accommodations' based on the psychiatry religion's bullshit labels.
