Born in June.
The "autistics I know" are a tiny sample that wouldn't prove anything. And so is the small sample who have answered so far.
Each month of the year would be expected to have 8 1/2 percent of respondents born that month because 100/12 equals 8 1/2 .
A while back we had a similar poll about signs of the zodiac. There did seem to be a curious distribution on WP for births under certain signs. Some got way more than 8 1/2 percent, and some way less. But I doubt that meant anything either.
I don't talk about zodiac I don't believe in them I am aries and most characteristics of aries don't fit me, but most aspies I know born in autumn or winter and I wonder if the weather affects this. and not only about mounths but the clime of the country. In Greece asperger is rare but I have heard that in northern europian countries the percentance of asperger are higher I don't know if it's true

I was born on what would be the last day of winter in the Northern hemisphere (19 March). But I know of autistic people born in each of the 12 months of the year. Don't think there's any connection.

I was born during the shortest month of the year. It's also possibly the most hated month of the year. So according to a recent study done by me, I should be severely below average height and hated by everyone I meet.
