| I rarely wear any make up, however as a younger teen my special interest was makeup artistry and I was obsessed for years with anything to do with it. It wasn't a vanity thing, it was purely a special interest. I had pretty good technical skill when it came to applying makeup so when I do wear make... |

Amen! It's like the mental equivalent of symbolically sticking the crap out of a voodoo doll. It (probably) doesn't harm anyone, but the release of that energy sure makes you feel good. |

| Now if I could only figure my way out of visits to the dentist I'd be set. ^^^ So much this!! ! I'm pretty lucky in that, at my salon, the stylists don't like to chat so much, in fact, one time one of the girls told me, "Ok, when I'm really in the zone I'm quiet, but you want that so I can focus on... |

| Girly girl here. When I was younger, like in my late teens and early 20s, I used to dress and wear my hair in a very masculine style. I worked in a field dominated by guys, so I couldn't dress too femininely else they wouldn't take me seriously. Also, I was putting myself through college, and just p... |

| So, the Aspie stare is not really a good thing for us. If you come up with a cure for it, please post it here at WP, as I and many others here would like to have it. :lol: How about extremely dark or mirrored sunglasses? Roy Orbison made it a cool trademark look, why can't we? ;-) They can't tell y... |

| It would be fair to conclude that email is not the best way to stay in touch with this individual. This. I have a friend who is similar who has a lot of anxiety. He won't interact with you much via text message or email and almost never responds to messages sent electronically. If I call him though... |

| I kinda get what you are saying about libertarian emphasis on individualism and the possible connection to Aspergers. One of the things that is so problematic about libertarianism is that it is so broad as far as the philosophy it encompasses. I like the small (but present) government, equal rights,... |

Maybe it's just me, I can't stand people even touching me. I understand why pretty people date, but I don't understand how uglier people can sett... |

| I'm a female, in my 30s, who is not formally diagnosed with Aspergers, but probably meets criteria (AQ = 35). Since I was very little, I always felt "different" from others around me and definitely empathize with the "right brain, wrong planet" sentiment expressed in the logo of this site. At times ... |
