I'd like to start off by saying I have autism. Many people - autistic and otherwise - have debated whether to refer to us as _autistic people_, or _people with autism_. I'm aware that some people with autism prefer the former description, _autistic people_. Personally, I don't mind either description. I'd guess most of us aren't that bothered, although I don't know for sure. That being said, the latter description, _people with autism_, is widely considered to be more politically correct. Neurotypical people will visit this community, and we don't want to offend them by using the incorrect term to describe ourselves. /s, by the way. Never let an NT tell you what to call yourself.
