| I'm neither? I learn best by listening. I am however unable to recall the words moments later, because the words translate into pictures in my head or things that are neither pictures nor words. I can't work with visual information though. I am almost unable to explain anything in words, as pictures... |

| Oh, I'm glad to learn there are more people feeling like this. I like the idea of doing things best and perfect, I just hope I can learn to push myself to doing something when I feel like that anyway. If I overcome that, I'll be comfortable with the stressing perfection issue. About my family and ho... |

| I've been wondering about this too because I had no language delay, have excellent grammar and use of words when writing or feeling very well, but I also tend to mix up words, grammar and pronouns as often. Usually I use sentences that don't differ from teenie-speech at all. From expierence in schoo... |

| My results. Gender: Female Score: 25% Male I should start worrying I suppose. I actually scored neither male nor female but in the middle in every section, but got 12 shapes from 12 correct.

| I do. When I get them I scream, trash out, insult somebodyseveral times in one sentence and develop these tendencies to be awfully strong. When they're not as bad though, it mostly goes like a few hours before: I was in a full bus with a friend and I had spot a free place to sit and went there to si... |

| Hi, I wanted to ask you a question about the need to achieve perfection. I am wondering what this is about and if somebody else knows it too maybe, because all my friends say it’s stupid. I am a perfectionist and enjoy that quite a lot too, I love doing things the best I can in everyday life. But, I... |

| I can't learn languages at school, I get zero points there, but I love teaching myself languages. I taught myself English and it only took me 4 weeks. I also like French, though I'm not sure when to start, I was thinking to start reading a French book in my Christmas holidays when I have more time a... |

| My family says I'm doing everything wrong and bad on purpose. They come up with many more nonsense reasons too. I hate this. I'm so not going to tell them I have AS. Take this! There was a short reportage on TV about an autistic boy who was going to dolphin therapy because he couldn't walk and my mo... |
