Description

In the podcast episode of "Femme on the Spectrum," Elizabeth addresses the sensitive topic of naivety and manipulation. With a significant percentage of autistic adults reporting victimization by manipulation, she embarks on a deep-dive into how the natural, transparent disposition common among neurodivergent individuals can sometimes be exploited. Sharing personal anecdotes about exploitative friendships, she underscores the need for people to reassess relationships where they may be used for the other's advantage. Shifting to discuss romantic relationships, Elizabeth brings attention to the higher risk of abuse faced by autistic women. The podcast emphasizes the importance of personal development practices such as setting boundaries, growing intuitive awareness, and adopting community support as critical measures against manipulative behaviors, stressing that every experience provides an opportunity to learn and grow.
