| Frankly, judging by my impression the time I first saw her post, I figure: 1. She is probably attractive. 2. She has edgy tastes. 3. She describes herself as having a female figure, which even some females lack! 4. She has male interests/talents. 5. The lack of female interests/talents, and social ... |

| Just one: Never interfere with another's life unless they are interfering in the life or freedoms or rights of, and/or threatening, another. Even if it disagrees strongly with someone and thinks what they are doing is bad, so long as they aren't forcing their choices on another, so long as no one is... |

| It just wants to say, for the people who are talking about sexual orientation, liking guys or girls - that has nothing to do with what the OP is talking about. Sexual orientation, the gender you are attracted to, and gender identity, the gender you see yourself as/feel yourself to be are two complet... |

| Sounds like you could be a female-to-male transsexual (ftm for short). If that's the case, it would probably have little or nothing to do with AS. There are plenty of websites and forums out there about transexuality, transgenderism, genderqueers, etc. You might want to look into it? |

| Don't like babies, especially when they cry. Or any kid for that matter; anything less than 13/14 or so it just can't stand. Can look at a picture of a baby and agree that they're cute because that's what's expected, but once it has to be near them in real life...just <i>no</i>. |

| It doesn't know if this is the same thing as your kid, but it was cross-eyed (only in one eye, it thinks) as a kid too. It needed glasses to correct itit would've needed them for vision no matter what anyway. But either way, yeah, get a second opinion. |

| You are a person! Be proud and joyful of that. If your personhood is in the form of nerd - heck, you've got somewhere you belong. Take joy in that. There's nothing wrong with a nerd-person. |

| I found this interesting because I am a self-injurier. Yeah, well it´s not against the law. But, it could give the "government" enough reason to commit you to a hospital against your will, leaning on a law about forced mental health treatment. But you already knew that, right? I´m just looking out ... |

| Sounds plausible enough, that many SIers could have Asperger's - then again, could be the other way around. Dunno if it'd really be as many as 1 in 200, with all the reasons to SI. |

| Maybe say something casually like "Can you imagine what it'd be like if we met?" Make it sound hypothetical or something, and see where it goes from there. That way if they aren't interested, it won't be so awkward or anything. |
