I adore this video. It covers the majority of traits Aspie women have. The one omission that I would have liked to have seen: verbal difficulties, selective mutism, gesturing in lieu of words. That aside, I commend the video maker.
There is sooo much info packed in those 16 minutes. I thought I would break the vid down into its secretion and analyze.
Section A: Deep Thinkers
1) a deep thinker
Agreed. After a rare biological family gathering, I frequently thought loudly, "how was it I was birthed from such a shallow pool?" Seriously. I am a natural deep thinker.
2) prolific writer drawn to poetry
Pretty much. I can be a prolific writer, at times. Definitely drawn to poetry, composing and reading it.
3) highly intelligent
Sometimes.....see 4)
4) sees things at multiple levels including thinking processes
I'm not sure I understand this statement. Yup, clueless as to what it means. I continue to be "the dumbest smart person I know:)"
5) analyzes existence, the meaning of life & everything, continually
YES
6) serious and matter-of-fact in nature
Sure. Others have always remarked on my hellbent serious nature, since I was a child. I really don't know how to "play" or let loose...whatever that is:)
Oh, I have developed a minor Lego fetish. I have learned to play with Legos!
7) Doesn't take things for granted.
This surprised me a bit. But probably true.
8) Doesn't simplify.
Pretty much. It's difficult to simplify.
9) everything is complex.
Very true. I love detail. My art is usually "very busy"....an extension of what it's like inside my head/ world.
10) often gets lost in own thoughts & "checks out". (blank stare)
Hahahahahahaha.....Yup. Can we say daydreams and dissociates on a regular basis:) NICE
Much thanks and all credit to Samantha Craft for her spectacular video!!!!
