It depends what you think is attractive.

I don't think I am to be honest. :nerdy:

So, yeah, I may be somewhat-wildly physically attractive, but I still don't quite have much social skills still.


Once again today this song is relevant:

There can be attractive aspies.

Many people with aspies can become average or even be above-average if they cared about how they look. For instance, not combing their hair, dressing in sloppy clothes, person hygeine, etc.

Attractiveness is subjective. Unless of course you're a male/female supermodel with perfect proportions and a perfect face (which is extremely, extremely rare).

I think what a lot of aspies don't realize is that complimenting people on their looks is a social nicety that most people engage in on a daily basis - and exaggerating the truth or telling white lies is a standard part of the process.

When I finished school and people actually started wanting to talk to me I couldn't understand for a while why the compliments I received were so disproportionate to what I saw when I looked in the mirror, as I took every appearance-based compliment I received literally rather than understanding them to be the most flattering version of the truth.

I hope this makes sense. I think this is why a lot of aspies feel overwhelmed and confused by so many people apparently considering them to be extremely attractive.
