Your avatar does.

Speaking of avatars, love yours, Danielismyname. March 6th can't come here fast enough.

His words, etc... Sound AS. He states some AS symptoms. Who knows.... As for the picture, it looks like he is studying the camera that is taking the picture, and bemused by it.

Maybe its posture or body language.

I like Rorschach; he's asocial; he says what needs to be said, and that's it; he walks his own path; he's "undesirable", ugly, dirty, poor, uneducated; seen as a criminal, crazy and an outcast; he's loyal, and in the end, he can affect the world just as much as the "ideal" man can.

I'm looking forward to seeing it; as long as it follows the characterisations of the book, it should be ok.

Some people really *do* look like they have AS. It's a certain type of aspie, males, who have a very similar look.

Post up the damm picture already.

That is funny

How does one look like they have AS?

There is no such thing as an ''Asperger's look'', unless someone is physically doing something typically common in Autistics.

theys no such thing as Asperger's look.
Asperger's speech i think exsits

I can't tell, he looks normal and so does his profile. Not saying he doesn't have it because I don't know him.

Ha. Just found my old okcupid profile, it is a strange feeling to read that after knowing about aspergers.

Anyways I have experienced an aspie stare that encompassed more than just a gaze. It was an aspie feeling even if you will.

But then I havent met many aspies.

The guy took down all but one of his pics. I didnt notice anything except his posture was a little off of the usual track.

Actually, I have the stereotypical aspie look. I have a pair of eyes, a nose, two ears, a mouth, and a body. huh.

I have a friend who has moderate Autism, but you wouldn't think he's got anything wrong with him if you didn't know any better. He walks around with a confident expression (when he's not using his arm swinging stim) and he has his shoulders back and is always pulling a friendly face expression, which draws positive attention to him.

The one thing I otice is the way he's got his shoulders rounded, a lot of autistics I know in person (including myself) stand like that. But I wouldn't have noticed it if I'd seen his picture in a different context.

In pictures with multiple people, I've found one of the most reliable ways to pick out the autistic one is to see if anyone is looking in a different direction from everyone else. (Unless they're under 3, NTs under 3 will also look elsewhere a lot.)
