Some people on the autism spectrum have issues with a monotone voice.

As far as I know there is no correlation between autism and height.

Autistics do seem to look younger than their age, but no, one can't identify autistics via appearance as you can with Down's Syndrome.

Hi I'm 5f7 and do not have a monotone voice :D

You cant identify an aspie by looks to be honest, I dont look younger than my age so thats not a definite way of knowing either

I am over 6 foot tall. Around 1.9 meters and I do have a monotone voice. Sorta.

I have noticed a disproportionate number of aspies being tall in height and skinny but I could be wrong.

I'm 5'11" and don't speak in a monotone, and no, you can't identify someone as an aspie by looking at them.

I think I spoke in a monotone when I was a teenager---but don't speak in one now.

There's a picture of me when I was about 2 1/2 years old. It looked like I was oblivious to the world, and had sort of wild" eyes.

5 foot 10.4 inch

Skinny arms and legs, stiff, cannot dance because I can't keep timing. Nor can I sing. I have a monotone voice and I look too young for me age, so people don't take me seriously. I also act apparently like an old man. Drive an old man's car and dress and wear things like an old man. I usually let my girlfriends style me since I have little desire or motivation to go and get properly socially attractive attire. I wear things that are comfortable, apparently that makes me look like an old man.

height=6ft. Weight= depending on mood.. Monotone voice when tired or when a little sensory overloaded due to environment. Or sometimes dont even notice unless someone points it out.. Apparently i would be a good hypnotist! 8O
My age varies in look depending on weight, clothing style, hair length as well as whether im sleep deprived... Often get accused of being a stoner when i dont have sunnies on as my eyes always seem glazed 8)

As far as working if someone else is on the spectrum, in real life have had thus far a high hit rate on guessing correctly.. Maybe that i am now aware, Aspie radar is permanently deployed.

I don't know that I look younger than my age, though I can't really tell. But just the other day a man asked me if I was my neighbor's mother. For that to even be a question, he would have had to have thought 1 of 4 possible things.

1. I became pregnant in my late teens.
2. She's younger than she is.
3. I'm older than I am.
4. Some combination of 2 and 3.

I think I might actually look older than I am due to some health problems.
