^ Clumsiness (among other things) keeps me out of sport - I literally couldn't hit a barn door with a football - but clumsiness isn't part of the diagnostic criteria, so it's feasible that an Aspie could be highly skilled at some sports things.

To complicate matters, I am flexible, conscientious, compassionate, empathetic, and have commonsense and have had these traits as young as 5 years old.
