In phyllis chesler's autobiography, she talked about how black feminists (womanists) actually turned away from the mainstream feminist scene because they claimed feminist's didn't enough to defend black male criminals. this included the woman who worked as a lawyer for valerie solanas. these were all upper and upper middle class people who were beyond sheltered and didn't really understand the world.

I’m more than willing to hear black women out on their treatment by white women and white feminists, but if this is one of their complaints they can fuck off tbh. A rapist is a rapist. An abuser is an abuser. To say the only reason these men are this way because of racism is absolutely insane. Just look at how they behave in uncontacted tribes or majority black countries.

>Mine had the questionnaire too but otherwise was all talking.
Nta. Anon… you've never actually gotten tested for autism then. And the fact that you don't understand why the tests are even relevant is a sign you've very possibly been misdiagnosed. Not only do they do tests that are relevant to autism, they also do test to see if it's something else instead/in addition such as ADHD or an anxiety disorder. For someone to be able to tell for certain you're autistic without even doing tests would mean you're very significantly and noticeably retarded in the most stereotypical autistic ways and no other ways (in which case ignore the rest of what I said).
Basically what I think happened is that they've only let you do the screening questionnaire + light talking that determines if you should get tested at all, and concluded that you could get tested. But then they never actually did the assessment because they were quacks who couldn't be bothered and assumed you just wanted a diagnosis on paper anyway like all the other quirky kids, and hopefully they can sell you some meds and make you go away while also giving them money. It's like if you went to a doctor because your foot hurt and they touched it and you said "ouch" and they went "Yup, sprained. No need to x-ray, we're just gonna assume it's sprained and not broken, not swollen, not cracked, not in need of other treatment. Here's your meds for the sprained ankle only $99.99 per month!". It's also likely they simply didn't have anyone on staff who is actually qualified to test for autism so they just didn't test for it.

No. 2550193

>>2549586
They are checking things like pattern recognition, language processing, numerical skills, logic, and spatial awareness. It isn't necessarily that it linearly correlates with autism but knowing these abilities helps your clinician understand the big picture of your intellectual abilities and possibly rule out or identify other issues. For example maybe someone isn't autistic but they just struggle with language, not because of the social/emotional aspect but the actual words and grammar aspect.
I had the option to pay extra for extra testing for learning disabilities, which I didn't do since it's not a concern for me.

>>2549936
I've heard of plenty of other people having the talk assessments, if anything the type of assessment anon is describing seems very rare for adults in comparison. Afaik there's no official one test for it so you can't really define what's a "real" test?
>would mean you're very significantly and noticeably retarded in the most stereotypical autistic ways and no other ways
I did end up ranking in the severe category for all social related things, with the doctor noting that I'm basically incapable of having a two-way conversation of any kind and can't pick up on the basic social cues. I am extremely socially retarded to the point that it's not concealable and everyone notices it, if that's what you mean yeah.
>didn't have anyone on staff who is actually qualified to test for autism
It was a neuropsych who did the evaluation. Stuff like personality disorders, ADHD, and social anxiety had been ruled out at that point by my regular psychiatrist who had screened me for all that stuff before. That's how we landed on referring me to the neuropsych for an autism assessment because there was really no other explanation.

>>2550295
>if anything the type of assessment anon is describing seems very rare for adults in comparison.
No it isn't, that's what it's included in a real assessment. Every adult I know who's been tested (some came out without a diagnosis) had to go through it. Talk-only assessments are a bit of a scam, but I can see them being done in areas with poor mental health care. While there is no 100% universal standard test they're (supposed to be) very similar and also different because they're tailored after your specific answers. For example if you score really low on auditory processing there's no point in testing for that specifically. I have gone through ADHD tests as an adult because they wanted to make sure I didn't have ADHD as well as autism.

I really wouldn't trust someone to be able to assess autism accurately just from talking. They have no idea how your brain actually functions if they don't look for the actual symptoms and signs and what patterns you follow, it's really just gonna be a wild guess from that person based on your "vibes" during that one meeting. There are a million other reasons why someone can come off as "autistic", like what if you're just nervous, shy, anxious, have trauma, are from another culture, have some other disability, didn't get enough sleep last night, has poor spacial awareness, has depression, is hard of hearing, find that individual scary to talk to? Not to mention a really big thing to consider is that autism isn't actually autism (in a diagnostic sense) unless it reaches a certain threshold. To use the previous analogy - your foot isn't broken if your ankle is just sprained, even if the symptoms are similar and both make your foot hurt.

I feel you. I wish you and I could work together. I need to get off my anxiety ridden ass and leave this horrible place.
I got a talking to by my upper boss, she seems nice enough but doesn't care. I said I hate working there the other day and the cameras have audio and recorded me, she said I shouldn't say things like that at work.
My gossipy managers constantly bitch to her about the other coworkers, she then brings their complaints up in a meeting to address the "problem" to the coworkers with everyone around. Today we had a meeting and pretty much half of it was addressed to me. Them bitching about what I was doing not being to their standards. Literally just nitpicking. I starting walking home during lunch but a coworker caught me and drove me back. Both my managers had one on ones with me where they pretty much blamed the other and sidestepped the issue. It was like a mirror of what would happen in my teenage years when I'd flip out from my narcissistic stepfather than he'd pick me up after I'd go walking away, only to spend the entire car ride excusing his actions and blaming me. I know I'm going to get a reaming by my upper manager for this shit but I'm just going to have to take it and get the fuck out of there. And I'm so with you on the neet shit. I hate feeling useless but what's it worth it to work when your coworkers are going to treat you like shit and your job is continuously going to exploit you for poor pay. I worked a shitty wagie job before this that paid me a dollar half over minimum wage but I look back on that fondly because I had such nice coworkers and was responsible for my shit and my shit alone. I get paid TEN CENTS more at this job and do a little of my managers workload onto of my work while they nitpick what I do. I want to walk away from it all. It's like a nightmare I wonder when I'll wake up from.
I hope we both stay strong and see better days.

Sexually harassing dog trainer. They distanced me from him. He's like basically twice my age and tried to ask me out multiple times despite being married. I was clearly repulsed by the last time he did it. Said some vile shit about my body and face. Before he started being sexual he was playing concern troll about me having self harm scars and kept telling me to "smile". I have coworkers who know about my scars but are never insensitive nor creepy and his remarks about my scars made me cringe. I only ever mentioned him saying inappropriate things about my mental health and the smile thing being sexist but never reported to management about the sexual shit, because it means I'll have to submit an HR report and it'll come back on me.

The store keeps shilling him because he gives us hours and they reduced mine because I can't be around or verbalize with him without wanting to punch him in the face. It angers me and I'm about to start looking for a new job. I want so badly to report him to HR because he was reportedly inappropriate with a younger female customer acc to my work friend and our boss brushed it off. I'm afraid he's going to harass or cross the line with some of the women whose dogs he's training, and he already wants to homewreck his marriage. He's a vile creep and the fact that his first potential way of sexualizing me related to him staring at my scars tells me all I need to know lol. I hate men

I believe that certain breeds are just like that. For instance, I have a Havanese who prefers to be with me at all times, and it was by design that I got her, as I am a NEET. An e-collar isn't the way to do things at all… But I have seen some of my friends having some sort of camera that monitors the dog and also allows you to speak remotely? I don't think it'd help but there is also the option of leaving worn clothing in the crate/kennel.
I had realized my dog loves sleeping in my dirty clothes, so I put one of my shirts in her kennel and she happily slept on it. Gross but dogs have different priorities than us. Maybe sneak it in under their pillow…?

My night was made yesterday as I was coming back from work. For some divine interference, I decided to do a detour that I usually don't take. There's this big fluffy black dog at the end of the street, that sometimes I greet. He's usually super quiet behind the gate, he sometimes would sniff my hand but that was about it, no other reaction.
So yesterday, I see him with his owner outside of their house, and he has no leash on. He takes a second to consider, but then he runs and pounces towards me. Never seen this dog so happy! His owner actually was wearing crutches, so he couldn't stop his dog, not that I wanted him to. He apologised and I said how beautiful his dog was, and he asked me if I had interacted with him before. I told him just I would just say hi sometimes when I walked past him, and the owner replied that "he's already feeling like he's your best friend, it seems". I bid him good night and good bye and kept on going on my merry way, and then I hear the dude screaming the dog's name again because he ran to follow me lol He was such a cutie. Too bad I didn't catch his name.
Picrel is what the dog looks like, just a tad bit less floof.
