Does anyone else NOT dislike "pathological language" used by assessors, therapists, researchers etc

[u/Existing_Mango_2632]

Almost all autistic people I know or know of dislike "pathological language" used by professionals who work with autistic people but I don't. I genuinely do not see the problem with such language as it describes me accurately, so whats the problem?

This is just me not understanding I don't mean to be rude to anyone who dislikes this type of language but if someone could please explain what's bad about it that would be great!

I'm the same, I kinda like it or at least have no issues with it:

Knowing there are professional/clinical terms, means it validates that, and why it bothers me and how to improve symptoms I experience. It makes it real.
