autistic females are so few and far between. the argument is that autism presents 'differently' in girls/women and/or they're better at masking for some cultural reason, but at that point you're shifting the goalposts to the point they just DON'T HAVE autism.

but when people are autistic, they deserve PIP and are (rightfully) entitled to it. there are two different rates, and a separate mobility component (which has e.g. 'disabled' = 'in a wheelchair' covered).
