Is being austistic the same as being a virgo?

Post Reply New Topic

Astrology isn't real. The 'signs' and the horoscope are meaningless drivel.

well if my sign were true id be stuffed with aspergers, im a gemini, supposedly really talkative

I am an aspie, a virgo and a skeptic of astrolgy, so what does that make me?

I was born in September so I guess I'm a Virgo and an aspergers guy too.

My g/f is a virgo...she ain't autistic

Most autistic people are born in February and August according to a few studies I've read. Since virgo is partly in August it could have an effect.

I'm gemini so...

(least autistic sign)

There's Virgos who don't possess those traits, but maybe some bronze age folks stereotyped those traits on people born under that sign. You know, like how red headed people all have bad tempers (obviously they don't, but it was a common stereotype that wasn't actually based on anything real).

Logical mind agrees.

Illogical memory remembers the time mum printed off a list of Chinese zodiac traits & our family guessed which of us was being described without knowing the sign/year they were for. And our extended family all fit.

Logical mind knows this stood out because the human mind and esp the autistic human mind is prone to pattern seeking behaviour. We remember where there's a pattern. We forget if something doesn't fit that pattern.

I'm not even that much of a dragon anymore. I'm more of a monkey these days. I was just super dragon back before I got ill.

Yes, astrology is just a bunch of illogical nonsense, and anyone who actually believes in it is weak of mind, but I have the same feelings about religion, only stronger.

I believe in astrology. I know 4 different Aries people, not biologically related, that all seem to have the "fiery" trait that is one of the Aries traits.

What I don't believe in is all these stupid studies that say there's a link between autism and what months you were born in. One study says most autistics are born in February and August, but then another study revealed that most autistics are born in December and January.

I was born in April by the way.

Astrology is not complete BS, but it definitely approaches the theoretical limit.

me too

I'd have to say no, because many Virgos aren't autistic.

I would say the virgos I know in real life bother me the most. There's a air of stress around them. They are never happy no matter how good they've got it. They've got good looks (OK, virgos seem to be unfairly beautiful), good jobs, good health, friends and family, more money than they can spend, and they have to pick fault with every little thing and be pissed off. I hardly have any inclination to want to know them better. So does that describe autistic people to you? I don't think so.

I like summer born people the most. These people are relaxed and actually laugh about things.

No.
