do you think our add affects us in different ways?

or does being a guy and having add impact the way we live differently then girls

ill get the ball rolling

to me it seems that its more ok for women to be more hyper and talkative and altogether more ADHDish as compared to men who should be more calm and what not

I haven't really come across the gender differences in ADD, so I can't offer much. I'm much more inclined to believe that people think of ADD as a children's issue than an adult one.

Actually this is backwards girls are thought to be more inattentive even now hypperactive females are considered many things but having a neurodiversity such as ADD isn't normally among them.

I see a gender difference. I know several females with ADD, and I have had 2 ex-boyfriends with ADD. ADDers seem to be attracted to me. I guess it's because I'm very organizedand straightforward.

I think that females with ADD seem to be more honest.
