Autism: it's not just a male thing anymore
from SBS News In Depth

It's understood that the current ratio of males to females with autism is 4 to 1, however, new studies suggests it could be as low as 2 to 1. While this gap is slowly closing, women over the age of forty are becoming one of the key groups to seek diagnosis.
