What's the ratio again? For people on the Autistic spectrum and aspies in particular for males and females... and that...

What's the ratio of NT to AS
And what's the ratio of AS male to AS female?

Does anybody know? lol

apparently the AS ratio is 10 boys to 1 girl.
so for every 10 men there is 1 woman.

i read this somewhere a while ago.

I heard it is 4 boys for 1 girl, and that's just those with a formal diagnosis.

That means something like for every 600 people one of them is an aspie female... lol
And not only that but they're also harder to decipher as aspies... wow might be hard for me to find an aspie female... lol
