    Oh, for goodness sake. I do not have Asperger's nor have I ever claimed I did. My empathy is just fine (as is many people's with Asperger's)pic.twitter.com/Pu4EZIUo5R

        I'd even suggest I relate better to 'women' than the majority of radical feminists. There's a reason 90%+ of us reject feminism let alone RF

        My daughter might have Asperger's. One psych thinks 'yes' and another 'no.' She doesn't care tho so we've sought thorough assessment.

        Amazing how you disagreeing with some women equals "trouble relating to women."

        1) Seems intersectionality doesn't cover autism & 2) Current feminism might benefit from the tendency towards hyper-rationality that some w autism bring to the table in debate

        If what you've "got" is called Asperger's, please let it be contagious. [For sjw's and young people: I know what it is. So this is a joke].

        Aspergers by definition has empathy. We also yend to believe logic trumps it.

        perhaps your internalized misogyny presents as asperger’s as exemplified by your inexplicable reluctance to conform to political expectation
