| Greetings I found Martial Arts helped me ward away the bullies in school (mostly). It changes the way a person walks sometimes (it did for me, I did Tae Quan Do and a Tai Chi teacher told me he could see it in my walk) and gives confidence. People stopped bothering me so much after taking it up. Per... |

| I'm an Aspie, I do cry sometimes about stuff but I know that some Aspies don't/can't cry. The feeling is felt but not expressed the same way as an NT when an Aspie don't/can't cry (to the best of my knowledge). My Theory: The misconception that we don't feel leads people to believe, when emotion is ... |

| I agree, listening is really important and respect. Martial arts are good for confidence too (I agree), though one that focuses on the mental as well as the physical (I found to be good from my personal experience). Listening, respect and making sure they know that they are loved is most important f... |

| To my knowledge, in Ireland, England and other (I think most or all, I'm not sure) European countries people are legal for everything by age 18. What is the legal thing for Americans & Canadians? Is it all at 21? I'm curious, I mean no offence to anyone by these questions (if any offence can be... |

| One thing that I've noticed about being out (for a night) with other Aspies is that it doesn't matter if you have a drink or not. No one had a problem unless a person got aggressive under the influence. When you're out with NT's they seem to pay too much attention to if you drink or not. When I was ... |

| I like a drink rarely. Maybe one Champagne flute at new years or a hot whiskey once or twice through the year. |

| I don't think the English would want to punish him at all. They want to shelter and protect him. Why do you think that? I think that in America he could be placed with terrorist criminals and the rumors concerning their treatment are in no way good. Let the punishment fit the crime. If the usual pu... |

| Girls have a tendency to be hypocrites about the whole guys hitting on girls thing. For example, many women believe thats its fine for a taken woman to stare at a man's ass and check him out and all that, but if a guy does it, then he is cheating. It's the whole men are philandering pigs stereotype... |

| He should be tried in England. He is English and did what he did in England. I'm concerned. If in the U. S. he could be put into all sorts of danger. There are many things that a paranoid government could do to a person for the idea of protection of themselves. Fear can breed bad judgement. I believ... |
