 +Geen enkele ouder wenst een kind met een neurologische stoornis. Net als geen tuinier een land met "onkruid" wenst. Wij begrijpen wel het belang van biodiversiteit in ons milieu maar gaan aan de gang volgens de regel "niet in mijn tuin" Kort gras, propere struiken en bloemen die "mooi" zijn vormen het geheel van onze gewenste omgeving. Alles dat prikt, er raar uitziet of moeilijk te onderhouden valt duwen wij aan de kant of het liefst de andere kant van het hek, weg van ons.
 +
 +Onze omgang met mensen met autisme lijkt erg veel op de acties die wij in onze tuin praktizeren. Wij begrijpen dat deze mensen bestaan maar willen er erg weinig mee te maken hebben en liefst willen we ze ergens verstoppen en niet te vaak horen of zien. Net als in de strijd tegen onkruid waren er in onze geschiedenis periodes waar ook deze mensen werden bedreigd met chemische vernietiging.  Wij praten veel over misdaden van het nazisme tegen de joodse gemeenschap, maar erg weinig over het systematisch moorden van mensen met psychiatrische en mentale problemen door de nazis.
 +
 +Door onderzoek en het leren kennen van biodiversiteit in de natuurlijke omgeving ontstaat een groter begrip voor locale vegetatie wat dan weer een meer inclusief landschap voortbrengt, net zo kunnen we verwachten dat een diepere dialoog naar leven en werken met autisme een meer inclusieve visie van een samenleving belicht.
 +
 +Neurodiversiteit net als biodiversiteit is een noodzakelijk element van onze samenleving en maatschappij. In mijn onderzoek wil ik deze metafoor verder uitwerken en in beeld brengen voor een beter begrip van elkaar. Ik will me concentreren op hoe een **Gewenste** wereld van Neurodivesiteit zou uitzien en welke inspirerende samenwerkingen kan het brengen.

 <blockquote>Autisme is namelijk zowel een neurologische en psychiatrische stoornis of manier van zijn, als een product van menselijke relaties. We kunnen ons immers een maatschappij voorstellen waar bepaalde autistische kenmerken niet per se tot disfunctioneren of exclusie leiden, maar misschien zelfs sterktes zijn. Dit laatste ontkent echter niet dat autisme zeker ook een gedeelde en dus reële ervaring van anders zijn is. Het ontkent evenmin de problemen en uitdagingen waarvoor mensen met autisme en hun omgeving vaak staan. <blockquote>Autisme is namelijk zowel een neurologische en psychiatrische stoornis of manier van zijn, als een product van menselijke relaties.

 +**//How can we by talking about biodiversity inspire wishful shift in understanding Neurodiversity?//**

 + 
 +<blockquote>-Neurodiversity – the diversity of brains and minds – is a natural, healthy, and valuable form of human diversity. 
 + 
 +-There is no “normal” or “right” style of human brain or human mind, any more than there is one “normal” or “right” ethnicity, gender, or culture. 
 + 
 +-The social dynamics that manifest in regard to neurodiversity are similar to the social dynamics that manifest in regard to other forms of human diversity (e.g., diversity of race, culture, gender, or sexual orientation). These dynamics include the dynamics of social power relations – the dynamics of social inequality, privilege, and oppression – as well as the dynamics by which diversity, when embraced, acts as a source of creative potential within a group or society. **Nick Walker in notes ON NEURODIVERSITY, AUTISM, AND COGNITIVE LIBERTY**</blockquote>

 <blockquote>The most notable example of this is the intense world theory, initially proposed by Henry Makram and his co-authors in 2007. This theory claims that autism is a product of ‘hyper’ sensitivity rather than ‘hypo’ sensitivity as had been previously thought.

 ‘because a subset of cues are overly intense, compulsively attended to, excessively processed and remembered with frightening clarity and intensity. Autistic people may, therefore, neither at all be mind-blind nor lack empathy for others, but be hyper-aware of selected fragments of the mind, which may be so intense that they avoid eye contact, withdraw from social interactions and stop communicating.’ ‘because a subset of cues are overly intense, compulsively attended to, excessively processed and remembered with frightening clarity and intensity.

-For them, this includes not just cognitive-perceptual differences, but also ‘hyper-emotionality’, leading autistic people to become, in their words, ‘trapped in a limited […] internal world’. In turn, subsequent research has seemingly supported this theory, such as a recent study which found precisely that autistic people don’t look others in the eyes, not due to social disinterestedness as previously thought, but rather due to sensory-overload – just as autistic people, and in turn Makram, suggested.</blockquote> full article to be found here https://intersectionalneurodiversity.wordpress.com/2018/04/11/are-autistic-people-really-too-sensitive-how-the-intense-world-theory-gaslights-the-autistic-population+For them, this includes not just cognitive-perceptual differences, but also ‘hyper-emotionality’, leading autistic people to become, in their words, ‘trapped in a limited […] internal world’.

-//Sexuality and asexuality. Affection and love. Extreme Male Brain theory of autism in women with ASD.//+<blockquote>Neurodiversity proponents argue that autism is a neuro-minority rather than a mental disorder. In short, they deny neither that categories such as autism indicate disabilities, nor indeed the various forms of distress associated with being disabled. Rather, it is that they locate this disablement and distress in society instead of framing it as stemming from a medical pathology in the individual. So an autistic person may, for example, have heightened sensory sensitivity; but they only become disabled in relation to the senses in a world that is not designed to accommodate for this different way of processing, thus leading them, say, to experience sensory overload. **by Robert Chapman** </blockquote> full article to be found here https://intersectionalneurodiversity.wordpress.com/2018/03/29/is-society-sick-autism-and-the-extended-mind/

 <blockquote>The ASD group reported higher rates of asexuality; decreased heterosexual attraction and contact; increased homosexual attraction; ASD females reported higher homosexual contact; and were not concerned with the gender of their romantic partner. ASD individuals who were gender non-conforming reported better relationships with their opposite-sex peers during their schooling years than their gender-conforming peers did. The ASD group reported poorer mental health than controls and belonging to a sexual or gender-diverse group worsened this effect.</blockquote> full article to be found here https://autismawarenesscentre.com/autism-transgender-gender-dysphoria/ <blockquote>The ASD group reported higher rates of asexuality; decreased heterosexual attraction and contact; increased homosexual attraction; ASD females reported higher homosexual contact; and were not concerned with the gender of their romantic partner.
