This presentation explores the disparities in autism diagnoses between males and females, highlighting both biological factors and societal biases that contribute to the underdiagnosis of autism in females. While research suggests that genetic and neurological protective effects may play a role, the longstanding perception of autism as a “male disorder” has led to diagnostic criteria and clinical assessments that are often based on male presentations of autism. This presentation also highlight the unique strengths of autistic females, including deep empathy, creativity, and strong pattern recognition skills. Identifying the right forms of supportāsuch as fostering self-acceptance, promoting social connections that value neurodiversity, and tailoring interventions to their specific needsācan enhance well-being and quality of life.
