Expounding on Scott’s gender analysis are Theda Perdue and Jennifer Morgan who focus specifically on the bodies of Indian and black women.

Both authors argue about how their gender is keeping them from achieving that work-life balance goal. However, I believe we can have it all, regardless of our gender.
Wilson Disease is a genetic condition that causes a person’s body to store too much of the mineral copper. The short and most common name of this genetic condition is called “Wilson Diesease”, but other names such as “Copper Storage Disease” or “Hepatolenticular Degeneration Syndrome” occur when being very precise.

To begin with, Wilson Disease may affect several different parts of the body, as well as different organs throughout.

That means that out of the 3,000 kids 17 and younger that live in Butler County, almost 66 of them have some type of ASD. Autism is currently and is becoming prominent in our country and even our community. It is not unlikely that someone in this room will have a child with ASD one day.

Not only is wrongful diagnosis, over diagnosis, and clinician perception a negative of diagnosis, but there is much gender bias in diagnosing clients. The article “Gender and Diagnosis: Struggles and Suggestions for Counselors” by Erikson and Kress (2008), explains the issues with diagnosis between genders. According to Erikson and Kress (2008), feminists believe that certain diagnoses have forced women to conform to the norms of female domesticity. Feminist theorists believe that women’s anger, depression, and discontent has been reframed as psychiatric symptoms. As a result, the stressful and difficult circumstances of women's lives have been overlooked and deemed diagnosable (Erikson & Kress, 2008).
