The answer of course is to widen your sphere of empathy to other people. Neuroatypical individuals face some issues in society and thus deserve empathy, as women who face sexual harassment do.
Does book you cite mention neurodivergences at all? Reading the review on amazon didn't seem to say it did.
- ysv2 9y agoWidening our spheres of empathy means we can't predicate empathy on finding a label that fits people into an orthodox feminist understanding of privilege. The key takeaway from Farrell's book is that men also suffer. We need to become OK with having compassion for men, full stop. Even the men for whom we cannot apply an additional qualifier like "neuroatypical".
