Being the strong woman is being able to stand up what you know is right not being the constant victim of abuse; walking away from nasty threats, being able to wear what you want without feeling victimised in any way I did occasionally loved to wear dresses but I didn't want the invitation or excuse for random men to use this against me so I wore male clothing in town to blend in. To be able to remove people that cause nothing but stress; saying NO if you don't want to be approached in any way inappropriate; which some cases I never wanted in the first place: not being able to be communicate or in some cases just being scared to fight as you don't want to go through all the trouble of being in court. Being autistic I have always found it all too confusing I don't get all these hidden social cues; when I say lets go for a coffee and a chat I mean just a coffee and chat as a friend its not in any way a hidden meaning for you to initiate ***.
Finally as a 31 year old autistic woman I am starting finding my feet: saying goodbye to all the nasty men in my life who used and took advantage of me, its sometimes for the best walk away from the abuse just to move forward be the strong woman you know who you are the main thing is never to blame yourself never get resentful or upset life is about learning from your mistakes and never do them again.
