Winner of the Gold Award in the 2006 ForeWord Book of the Year competition, this groundbreaking book describes the unique challenges of women and girls with Asperger's Syndrome. In it you'll hear candid stories written by the indomitable women who have lived them. You'll also hear from experts who discuss whether Aspie girls are slipping under the radar, undiagnosed; why many AS women feel like a minority within a minority (outnumbered by men 4:1); practical solutions school systems can implement for girls; social tips for teenage girls, navigating puberty, the transition to work or university, and the importance of careers.

Helpful chapters include:

  • The Pattern of Abilities and Development of Girls with Asperger's Syndrome
  • Asperger's Syndrome in Women: A Different Set of Challenges?
  • Educating the Female Student with Asperger's
  • Girl to Girl: Advice on Friendship, Bullying, and Fitting In
  • Preparing for Puberty and Beyond
  • The Launch: Negotiating the Transition from High School to the Great Beyond
  • Aspie Do's and Don'ts: Dating, Relationships, and Marriage
  • Maternal Instincts in Asperger' Syndrome
  • For Me, a Good Career Gave Life Meaning

Loved it!

This book has been very helpful in presenting different aspects and symptoms of ASD in women. Many anecdotes were relatable to my history. I now know that I am not alone. I have a tribe!

Answered many Questions

Very insightful! Cleared up a lot of confusion!

Not too much information for women, it mostly focuses on helping girls up to adulthood. That informations is very good. But there's not much practical information for women

No so much women but rather girls

This book is a collection of articles related to autism and particularly some of the social challenges that girls may face as they grow and develop. It didn't bother me that different voices provided contrasting and sometimes conflicting information. These are opinions from unique individuals and not meant to create a unified whole. My biggest critique it that this book has not aged well, especially in regards to describing the teen social scene, and ideas on helping girls navigate it. I found it a bit cathartic to hear my own challenges described, but I'll have to look elsewhere if I want advice in helping my daughter. (My Space, the Sims, MTV...do these even exist anymore? )

Some useful nuggets

I agree that this book is potentially damaging to teen Aspie girls. It insists that Aspie girls stuff themselves into a stereotypical box, to sacrifice their true selves for nothing more than subordinate friendships to girls I wouldn't allow my dog to play with, much less a teen girl. We tell kids to "be themselves" but then in this book totally contradict that by telling them to be somebody else, somebody who fits in with a sick high-school culture that values only conformity, shallowness, money, "fashion" and rigidly stereotyped gender roles.

I'm a newly diagnosed adult Aspie, I was hoping this book would provide useful information, instead I'm sickened. I won't be recommending it.

Agree this book is damaging for Aspie teens

It is an easy book to listen to but was not very useful. I was looking for something more technical about Asperger in girls to get more knowledge on the specific matter, as all I have been reading is focused on men. However, this audiobook is only a compilation of short stories about women with Asperger but does not explain in depth how to deal with the disorder.

Not very useful
