Hi so I read this forum a lot but I don't post much. I just wondered what people thought of the hashtag.
Do I look autistic yet ?

I think this is a great start and is needed to raise awareness to how ASD is a spectrum and can affect both men and women.
Most of us have heard the term 'you don't look autistic', so anything to counteract misconceptions and ignorance is a bonus in my book.
I think it is brilliant. There was also the hashtag #Invisibledisability looking at unhidden challenges. From ASD to depression, chronic pain etc that was also very inspiring
