Autism In Women 1 Trait YOU NEED To Know!

In this powerful episode, we unpack one surprising trait many autistic women share—an intense fascination with true crime. But it’s more than just a hobby. For many autistic women, this interest is tied to deep-rooted survival instincts, emotional processing, and a desire to understand danger and human behavior in a world that can often feel chaotic and unsafe.

You’ll learn how autism in women and girls often presents differently than in men—and why this specific interest may actually be a coping mechanism for understanding social dynamics, safety, and threat prediction. We also explore the signs of autism in girls, Asperger’s in women, and how true crime stories uniquely resonate with the autistic female experience.

🔍 Topics covered:

• The psychology behind autistic women’s interest in true crime

• How safety and control influence special interests

• Autism symptoms in girls and how they differ from boys

• The intersection of Asperger’s, anxiety, and hyper-focus

• Empowerment through learning: how true crime can be a tool, not just entertainment
