I have a small head. I definitely don't have microcephaly or anything. Maybe it's average but it seems small for my large, tall body. Is this is an Asperger's thing?

I was diagnosed with 'autistic disorder', not Asperger, but I have an enormous head. Not freakishly large, but relatively large.

So if it is an Aspie thing, they failed to tell it to the designers of my head.

I don't know if it's an Aspie thing or not. I have quite a small head but my Dad (who we also think is on the spectrum) has a very, very small head. He has to get hats specially made.

Nope, relatively big - I don't think it's an aspie issue.

I think Autism is more commonly associated with a large head. I don't know if this applies to all ASD's or just classic. My son has Macrocephaly, his height and weight are in the 5%-10%, but his head is in the 50%.

I think I have a small head......not really really small..........but I have a narrow oblong face...I've always wanted a rounder face with high cheekbones-I think that's prettier. I have an oddly big forehead in proportion to the rest of my face. :( Anyways I think big heads are more common among aspies.

When I was in high school marching band, my hat size had to increase slightly very year. By my junior year, my hat size was 7 1/4, and I think it's stayed that way for a while. Well, my fedora hasn't gotten tighter in the past year, so that's a good thing.

But I'm not totally sure if it's an Aspie thing. I know people with very big heads, and they're not Aspies.

My head is also big, slightly raised on the left frontal-lobe, like a bump or something on my forehead.
