Till date after xx of discussion
There is no seeming consensus of an asperger mind
Every aspie is different, how can there be a diagnosis of Asperger, with infinite subtypes? Male female?

Is each subtype locked in the mind of his or her own through different lens which we understand the words here, As well as present different traits?

seemingly alike, nt also have their own perspectives and faux pas with their fellow men, but they can function socially, connect in groups with less stress or anxiety? What is the difference(s) for the diagnosis

Actually, since DSM-V, there should be no "official" diagnosis of AS.

I think what you are seeing has two main causes.

[opinion=mine]

1) Over-diagnosis of the most recent "fad" disorder, as if it were a default state of mind for anyone who is clumsy, socially inept, shy, and afraid of loud noises.

2) Self-diagnosis by lots of people who are desperate for an explanation of why they don't "fit in" - an explanation that absolves them of being responsible for their own actions.
