    As an autostic person, i have been told that i lack empathy and taking an empathy test seemed to confirm that. But i didn't understand how that could be given how strongly i feel the emotions of others. I don't always portray that i understand how others feel since i will admit to being somewhat selfish and being more concerned about my own feelings than i am the feelings of others. It doesn't mean i don't understand how they feel or even commiserate, i just often find myself caring less about how they feel than about the mess of my own emotions at the time. I tend to feel regret about how i made others feel after the fact, just not during the situation as i'm more concerned about my own feelings.

    It seems like it might be more socially acceptable for girls to be seen as quiet or shy (which could be a result of not understanding social situations and/or avoiding speaking to avoid getting in trouble or making a mistake socially). Girls are praised for being quiet and well behaved, and social awkwardness can sometimes be seen as cute or endearing, especially if the person is considered pretty or attractive.

    My chromosomes are xx. But when you look deeper into my genes, my esr1 receptor genes, that should be there given that im xx are...absent. so while the outside of my body looked female i do not have the primary estrogen receptors. That classifies me as endocrine intersex. I didnt learn that until I was in my 30s. Long before knowing that i started identifying as i currently do. Ive continued my transition and have found it overall helpful. Im also autistic, which i suspected but wasnt diagnosed with until in my 30s.

    Intersex conditions are mutually exclusive from gender incongruence. I've found that those with intersex conditions feel that this lack of understanding, dilutes their much less known about challenges. And some of the unnecessary medical procedures they were put through as children. Put some other ways: intersex does not mean you are trans*; trans does not mean you are intersex; most people that are trans are not intersex, but some trans are intersex as well; some intersex people are trans, some intersex people aren't. Replace trans* with your favourite gender incongruent terminology. You get the idea. Anyway, keep learning, great topic.

    Science doesn't "age well" or "age poorly." It just slowly becomes more accurate. Presentism can make people believe that historical figures and events were impeding progress when in fact those figures and events were facilitating progress. If previous generations didn't do the "poorly aged" work there is no reason to believe we could begin the work today and get it right on the first try

Microdosing mushrooms make you more yourself and make you feel more sober than sober. The clarity of thinking is too much to ignore this information. Research for yourself it will heal you. There is so much medical misinformation about microdosing out there.

    I believe the reason for the evolution of contralateral contole is damage mitigation and protecting the functionality of our dominant sides. Many theories talk about increased depth perception and coordination... However, some animals that utilize ipsilateral controle have even better depth perception and coordination than some animals that use contralateral controle. These theories make no sense to me. Now, let's say I am a right hand dominant hunter...odds are, I will be attacked on my right side, as that will be the side I am using to attack...putting it within a range of being damaged. If my right side of my head gets damaged...that effects the left side of my body, leaving me still in an advantage compared to losing controle of my dominant side. As someone who is right handed...if I want to look behind me, I generally look to the right side...putting that side of my head in danger as being attacked from behind would be more common (sneak attacks or if I'm running away). Additionally, if I'm looking into a small crack, if I'm not thinking first, I'm likely using my right eye... So contralateral controle seems to help mitigate damage and allow those who obtain damage on their dominant side to not lose function on their dominant side.

    BS feels more like a stepping stone that leads to an MA or MS in the final 60 credit hours of coursework that leads to a BS degree, which means that the final two years of the BS with emphasis on specified coursework, depending on the major, feels almost identical to what you would find in a master's program

    02:19 in this video ..100% Correct .. Autistic people do not necessarily have high IQs..It is a Myth that they do. The average remains about 100 ..The same as non-autistic people... I am Autistic .. I have VERY poor "People skills" but superior mathematic skills and I am very skilled at stuff like sudoku puzzles, chess, draughts, and games like Connect 4 .. But my people reading skills are very sub-par. I really don't interact with people very well also. For some reason, I love to memorise loads of useless data.. Not sure why I do this. But no Autistic people are not necessarily more intelligent than people who are not autistic.
