| I thought Tony Attwood's Complete Guide to Asperger Syndrome was good. It was one of the first books I ever read about Asperger Syndrome and if I had to recommend a book about Asperger syndrome that would be it. Other than that I have seen some very poor books about Asperger Syndrome that seem judge... |

| I go to a group for people with Aspergers and I have noticed that some members of the group will move their hands and use gestures while talking, but other members of the group don't. I have also noticed the ones who use gestures the most are the ones who have been most successful in employment and ... |

| I like cats as pets, they are graceful and elegant with soft fur which can be many different colours. I like the independence of cats, but also they are sociable which isn't much like me. The only thing about me like a cat is that I prefer sleeping in the day, too. But because I'm a human society wo... |

| Even though life with Aspergers is very difficult for me sometimes I still wouldn’t want a cure, mainly for reasons other people have already said here. Also, I’m an adult now so it would probably be too late to cure me, anyway. |

| Physically being female is okay, but yes, I do hate the stereotypes and prejudice associated with it :x . I don’t think I’d be happy as a man either though, because they have their own stereotypes to deal with, such as not having any emotions. I can understand wanting to be genderless, it would get ... |

| I always had a tendency to collect things, especially as a child, but it’s hard to explain why. I would say that I found collecting to be satisfying whenever I found something new to add to a collection, comforting to look at and examine, and overall it was just enjoyable and relaxing. Losing a part... |
