I think the OP is asking why it says Asperger's and not autism. The answer is that either statement would be true: autism is not a disease either.
This site is appears to be geared more towards Asperger's. Although it says autism and asperger's at the top, most people are associating with AS and most posts are AS related. Thankfully it's super similar to the other ASDs and support is similar.
I feel so lonely sometimes here though. It's like if you are not AS, you are less cool or less intelligent. Sensitive day I guess.
