I'm a woman in my 30s, and find that it is very hard to explain that a) yes, I'm capable in some ways b) no, I'm not capable in all ways. Because I'm seen as competent in my job, and by those around me, I'm expected to behave , act, think in ways that always live up to that competent profile. But I can't.
I want to be able to say 'im not good at x' without people saying 'how annoying, you should be'. It's frustrating on many levels, partly because it's a neurotypical way of thinking to make assumptions about how someone should or shouldn't be or think. I feel like I can't win.
