That sort of sounds like me too, and other parts my mother. I had never even thought about it before thanks.

Maybe I'm just having a dense day, but how are these really any different than how males present? These just seem to have a more slightly feminine tint, possibly simply via language use, but really don't seem to be unique to females at all.

Can someone tell me what it means on there when they describe someone as a "trainspotter"?

Quite a lot of this describes me, that's for sure. And my sister and my mom.

I got confused by it as well and assumed they meant:

A. a person who does heroine
B. a person addicted to dangerous behavior
C. a person who has a hobby of watching trains

trainspotter definition is:
"Definition:

1. collector of locomotive numbers: somebody whose hobby is collecting the numbers of railroad locomotives


2. boring person: somebody who is considered boring because of his or her staid outlook, narrow interests, or unfashionable appearance ( slang insult ) "

I'm really not sure in which context they are using the word, so i don't know which definition it applies to.

I'm pretty sure they're saying that quite a few AS males have trains as their special interest and that AS females don't.
