1. The causes of Autism are WIDELY-DISPUTED AND INCLUDE MANY GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS.

2. If the cause WAS purely genetic, how is it any more a female carrier's "fault" than a male's?

Still I believe that in 99% of heriditary cases of AS, its inherited from the mother only. There are extremely few men with AS who have kids. Accept it.


this actually made me laugh out loud! you are presenting an opinion, then closing your statements with the imperative to 'Accept it'.... as though it were somehow based in fact. how silly!


It is a fact.


no, actually it isn't. it's your made up little fantasy. sorry about that.

so not just on Y


It won't be anything to do with the Y chromosone in any way, shape or form if it is genetic linked.


I never said it was on the Y, I'm saying its preposterous to assume that because it clearly ISN'T on the Y, it must be on the X. There are 22 other chromosomes out there that it can be on.


It's a theory, and one that I believe. I don't have any "proof" because its an opinion. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Pardon, but...
what do you base your opinions on, if not evidence?
