←Created page with 'Changed 'People with Autism' to 'Autistic people' as the majority of people in the Autistic community (including myself) strongly prefer Identity-first language to person-first language, some of us find the use of person-first language offensive. We don't say that someone is 'A person with Canada' we call them 'Canadian', we don't say someone is 'a person of female identity' we call them a 'woman' we don't say someone is 'A person with piano playing talents...'

Changed 'people with Autism' to 'Autistic people' as person first language is considered offensive in the Autistic community and is as appropriate as calling a Black person a Negro
