What is Neurodivergence?
It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”
So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
Rules
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!
Further rules to be added/ rules to be changed based on community input
RULES NOTE: For this community more than most we understand that the clarity and understandability of these rules is very important for allowing folks to feel comfortable, to that end please don't be afraid to be outspoken about amendments and addendums to these rules, as well as any we may have missed

I really did not want to further this discussion lol, but I do have some things to say in response to this now that you did. I actually sincerely did want to discuss the overall feeling of having things imposed on you rather than the specific incident.
Sorry, but that is completely unfair of them. And i thought we assumed good faith of each other here. In fact, since mods have removed posts of people assuming bad faith of me before, I thought it was a rule that we assume good faith from other Hexbears. It certianly makes this place safer for me as an autistic person when we do!
Why are big boobs inherently more sexual then small ones? Why is half the userbase here afraid of women's bodies? I realize that second question is very confrontational especially but its just a repeated thing I dont get about this place. The image is either not or barely sexualized to me, and the reaction I have gotten outside of Hexbear when I show people it and ask them what their take on it is re sexualization and "tradwifeism" has beared out that this pretty strongly a Hexbear-bound phenomenon because everyone else Ive asked (all leftists, at least one VERY sensitive to things like male gaze) have been absolutely baffled by the reaction it got here.
I didnt even notice that she had cleavage before i posted the image and someone called it horny. Like that part of it literally didnt register with me and I was shocked that that was people's takeaway. Obviously from the title I wasnt shocked that some people took away traditionalism or whatever, but that title was like half joke and half an attempt to difuse a certain reaciton before it happened.
I get the part about how my title primed people for a certain reaction, but I have a tendency to want to difuse situations before they happen because of my autism, so people still took that very much the wrong way. Like I get paranoid about reactions things might get and try to put up shields against those things before they happen, but for some reason a lot of the time those things make them worse. (Also in spite of that paranoia, I STILL was completly blindsided by the idea that me posting that was horny).
