We like the word ‘neurodiversity’ for the reasons given on the brain.he homepage. But how should we talk about people? Is it OK to say someone is ‘neurodiverse’? Is that a meaningful word? If it’s useful to refer to people as ‘neurotypical’, how about saying others are ‘neurodifferent’? How close is that to sounding like ‘abnormal’? Ideas please!
