what is the facial necleus?
That'd be a collection of neurons in your medulla that controls your facial expressions (Autonomic) and also your stapedius.
wouldnt that make us have crap expressions and not be more 'hot' face to face?
Well most of us have impaired facial expressions, and for further reference it's also the same neurons that help us read Other peoples' faces too.
However face to face the asymmetry is compensated better for by first of all the viewer having two eyes instead of one lens, secondly the fact that we move and change angle constantly (Pictures are still and make asymmetry more noticable) and third, charisma goes a long way.
I thought charisma was also lacking in those with AS?
I really want to see your picture and see you face to face and see if there is a difference.
I definately look better in photos as in RL Im very 'dorky', also I cant delete the RL images that look terrible

Charisma is by definition that beauty that is in the eye of the beholder. Rather vague term but always defined by the observer.
For example I'd say I'm quite sure I would've prefered your looks face to face if you're dorkier then,
dorky women are of my taste, whereas you yourself obviously have another opinion.
Maybe I'll post a picture some day, who knows?

I think its better to judge with non-edited/touched up photos, so here is a new one.

Besides, what kind of falsification you're talking about it here? there's no typical physical characteristics for autistics or AS, it's not like the William' Syndrome or Down Syndrome...

Facial symmetry is what often defines photogenic faces, this due to the single lens being used to copy something we otherwise would percieve in stereo. It's less obvious the further away from the lens the object is however.
Feel free to read further: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_symmetry
Autism has many Very typical physical features,
I'm not going to rummage through it all but as a few examples are having lower corners of the mouth compared with the upper lip, the top of the ears may flop over, ears may be lower and tend to be more square shaped, among other things.
Further the facial nucleus is reduced in size and sometimes missing fully. As a result the face becomes asymmetrical to some extent in most cases.
( Kolb & Whishaw: Brain and Behaviour: 2nd Ed )
Huh...some of this is interesting, I'll have to look it up. However, I'm confused whenever the word autism is used in lose terms. Autism itself is seperate from aspergers. It's just that the autstic community like this one prefers aspergers use the terminology autism as in the autistic spectrum so that it's equal among autistics and people with aspegers. But the stark contrasts are noticeably different between the two.
Anyway I really don't see the resemblances of faces of those on the autstic spectrum. I know one trait is looking blank or expressionless yet I come across people that look quite the opposite. Then again maybe the ones that don't appear nerdy or frozen in time are neurotypicals in denial!
