Then why don’t you let Lauren know instead of starting a fight about it here, which doesn’t change anything. She’s probably just writing what she believes is the correct terminology but how will she “know and do better” if no one tells her? you’re saying it’s ok to be wrong and to say hey I didn’t know, but you’re not trying to inform her you’re just getting angry that she doesn’t know something?

I’ve also been told to use the phrase autism spectrum disorder instead of autistic so that’s what I would have written as well and I wouldn’t have known it would make anyone upset.

And every review I’ve read of the show also uses on the spectrum to describe the characters so I think you’ll find that’s what the majority of people believe is the correct terminology (rightly or wrongly).


My original comment was about Lauren Dubois so why are you fighting with me? Lol. Wtf.

Also autistic people prefer not to use autism spectrum DISORDER because it stigmatises autism as “disordered” which to them it is not.

Wow I’m so surprised at the level of ignorance being shown by a lot of people. I feel like you may be Lauren Dubois herself. Wouldn’t surprise me if she was on here. Miss goodie two shoes woukd not be able to help herself on her “miss correct” parade.

She’s seriously not helping anyone. And neither are all of you. So why don’t you go let her know? It’ll give you something to talk about so you can suck up her a over there.





Just get over it everyone, look it up.I’m moving on now as I never imagined the amount of allistic people would be so extremely triggered.

I am a niece, sister and aunt to someone who is autistic, 100% agree with your comments
And the show As We See It is based on an Israeli show called On The Spectrum. And the creator Jason Katims has a son with autism who has has based characters on and he refers to it as being on the spectrum in his interviews. I don’t think it’s unreasonable for neuro typical people to think this is the appropriate term to use if they haven’t been told otherwise.

(the show is very good btw. Very beautifully done)
Disagree, I watched this show and whilst it was a step-up from Atypical it was still awash with stereotypes and lacked true representation, the interviews floating about with the actors who played Jack & Violet are also very problematic.

I listen to the people in my life who are actually autistic and they all loathe the term “being on the spectrum” or ASD.

She’s had a lot. Lips 100%. Also a lot of Botox in the brows because you can see how her eyebrows flick up at the temples. Classic Botox brow. She’s also had tear trough and cheek filler because it’s giving her squinty eyes.


I’ve seen NZ influencers do the same with their own brands.



please don’t accuse women of being liars if they change their story. As asurvivor of abuse myself it’s very damaging to make women feel like they can never come out and tell their story if they’ve ever downplayed it out of fear or shame because when they do finally feel brave enough to share people are going to accuse them of lying.
I also think your wrong Lauren has talked about mysoginy alot in her job especially with Julia Gillard who she seems a bit obsessed with imo lol. She’s never said it was a great experience.
Oh I wish I had the screen shots so I could show you what I mean as her comments saying she never had an issue were actually in response to someone sharing a story of abuse. What Lauren did was actually just what you accused me of. Completely understand the Julia Gillard obsession. I’ve heard her speak and she is amazing.

Also can we please leave the moral authority and in fighting over on Gomi.

And I have autistic friends who prefer person centric language and refer to themselves as on the spectrum 🤷🏻‍♀️. There’s no blanket rule, everyone has their own individual preferences. The only way to know what someone prefers is to ask that individual person. It’s widely used language, which doesn’t make it right, but it also doesn’t make it wrong. LDB is one of the few influencers who probably would engage in a reasonable discussion around it and change her views and future behaviour. It’s been discussed to death here and I don’t think anyone is changing their minds 😅

I agree, there are people in both camps and it’s totally up to them.
I just wanted to offer perspective but I’m really regretting it because the whole thread has been derailed so I’m apologetic to everyone in this thread and hoping we can just leave it be now.

Exactly . Imagine if we all tried to argue with every comment everyone ever makes against every influencer. The derailment of this whole site.

I don’t like some peoples opinions on certain influencers but they have come here to have a gossip and like myself would prefer to do that without the white knighting.


I just can’t stand LD. I will be posting about her again as I see fit like everyone else comments on who they want to

ive gotta politely disagree with you there.
That whole autism debate got dragged out which is why I’m hoping it’s now done with, but there’s nothing wrong with opposing views.
It’s healthy discussion.

Im under the impression that this is a snark forum, not an echo chamber and we’re all allowed to disagree.

She also did this attention seeking pic that went viral during the bushfires - but agreed like above one of the least problematic
I didn't ask why people didn't like LD so I could defend her but with this I just wanted to say that it was an incredibly scary time and her words resonate because Australia truly was atthe mercy of Mother nature. Where I lived we were door knocked and had our belongings packed to evacuate and now even my family, who would want to, just cant understand the fear that we lived through. I think LD just wanted to acknowledge what was a very scary and significant time.

No one is disputing the fires were significant and scary. But getting out of your car and setting up a breastfeeding photoshoot was so incredibly tone deaf IMO

I think Sophie G has also had something done to her teeth - veneers? They look much more even and white than than older photo. I love how she tells the story of how she had them filled once, years ago, and she still has a lump from them. I mean :rolleyes: I have had lip filler in multiple times and any time I get a lump it works its way out. And also by the 6-9 month mark if I haven't had them topped up there are no left over lumps. She is one of the worst ones out there I think...

Back in the old Ashy Rants page on FB there was tea in there about her using steroids - someone had good information. And there is a story about her cheating on Nath, way back before they got married, he found her in bed with someone else and they broke up for awhile?? I wish that person would find their way here 🤞
Yeah, I remember this! It wasn’t me that wrote it. Also lots of chatter about meth use from memory.

Seriously! She just point blank admitted she accepted them because 'knives are expensive'

These dimwit influencers are getting dumber by the second.

And, are yeah you are a puppet Livvy. Where the $$$$ you go.

Love the photos they chose! 😂
I think I know what's wrong with her mouth.

Which is actually fitting for her.

She has almost like a snake tongue?! It's too small for her mouth?! 🐍
