| Sincerely, I think that "Dabrowski's overexcitabilities" a bit "mumbo-jambo". The name itself ( Dabrowski 's overexcitabilities) sends the message that is an invention of one guy than a result of serious research. If you spend some time doing an internet research you can find out that Dabrowski's t... |

| I am amused at the contrast between your post and this one. http://www.wrongplanet.net/postx148204-0-0.html Actually that post is the right reply to this post. Usually Aspie are obsessive and so we are probably obsessed by grammar too. Being less social also is a good way to avoid slang. As for "no... |

| Well, most of the AS ladies I've come across (3) do not wear make-up, they wear male clothes and their general appearances can be described as rather brutish. After some quick conversation, they have conveyed that they do not share sexual interest in men, and that (to paraphrase) "most autistic [fe... |

| According to Baron-Cohen extreme male brain theory about autism, autistic people tend to have a more "male" barin wiring (more gray, less white matter; attraction to physics world, less attraction to social world, etc..) so it's possible that from an external point of view people tend to label AS gi... |
