    Hi Aakanksh. I want to offer you a very helpful tip that I learned from the CTO at my company. He was also on the autism spectrum, and he pointed out one time that the way we talk and the way we write are very different from each other. Everyone has a speaking style and a writing style, but they are rarely or never the same style, so when you write a speech for a presentation or a talk and then read what you wrote, it’ll sound like you’re reading something aloud instead of speaking. This comes across as unnatural, and for some listeners, it will make it difficult for them to listen to what you’re saying, even if they want to hear it. What he suggested for preparing for a public talk or public speaking event where you’re not being interviewed or something where you’re just responding in real time, is to write out what you want to say first, then read out one or two sentences at a time to yourself but don’t say them out loud. Instead, think about why you wanted to include them in your talk, get the concept solid in your head, and then instead of reciting what you wrote, just say what you would say about the thing you wanted to talk about directly as if you were saying it while having a conversation with a friend or close colleague. You should record what you say when you do that, and you could even say it a few times and try a couple different ways of saying it. Once you’ve gone over your written content and recorded yourself talking about your discussion points, go back and listen to what you said and write that down, and use that to build your talk instead of what you wrote originally. This method gives you the benefit of what you write that second time will be written in your speaking style instead of your writing style, so even if you just read it or recite it when you give your talk, it’ll automatically sound more natural and authentically like you yourself, because you’ll be reading as you’d speak instead of as you’d write. It’ll sound much better and people will find it much more palatable and be able to get a lot more out of your effort, too. And that will help make what you do in your videos more effective and should help build up your channel a lot quicker and make it better and bigger in the process. If you’re like me, speaking publicly is awful, and so I try to prepare my material and talking points, but not my speech, because I find that it both feels better, as well as comes across better if what I say is more off-the-cuff and in real time than if I just read something I wrote. That’s how I did it even before I learned that from my CTO at my job, but his method creates even better results than what I had been doing on my own before that. But if you want to compare the differences without putting in any effort first, you can even do that just by watching this video. Listen to your intro first, and then listen to some of your questions and responses and interactions with Kate and compare how different they sound to you (ignoring how your voice sounds to you, because if you’re like me, hearing your own voice recorded is annoying and hard to listen to). Anyway, feel free to take this tip or ignore it - whatever works best *_for you_* is what you should do. I just wanted to share the tip with you in case you think it might help you make even better content. Totally up to you. I enjoyed the video either way!

    Having to mask doesn't make anyone happy, feeling accepted does. ABA puts everything on us, we have to change, we are wrong. We are not 'wrong' accept us for who we are. Fifty years ago gay people had to mask and hide who they are, today they are accepted. We need to demand acceptance.
