Abstract
In this paper I argue that we must resist succumbing to language, concepts and meanings that seek to “shrink” or colonise us. This resistance must, in my opinion, extend to health services and therapeutic practices well as to the concepts of autism and intersectionality. I hope to show how my understanding of resistance is playful rather than hostile, moving from “either/or” to “both/and”.
