Im a Country singer from Virginia and I have not yet been diagnosed with autism, however I was evaluated at age 14 years old, and the Dr believed I had a form of autism based on several observances of my behavior patterns. I had the hardest time in school being bullied because I loved Country music, and was overweight, and refused to conform to the other kids' taste. Even though I am from the South, very few people will admit to liking beautiful Country music.
This year I plan to get an official diagnosis!

My oldest sister is severely autistic.

I am in love with Country music. I also enjoy old black and white movies. I prefer black and white television to color- especially the horrible new "HD" color TV set. However, I do enjoy movies that were shot in technicolor, such as "Gone With The Wind". I am glad to find this board. I saw the youtube channel first. I am happy to be here. Thank you.

Welcome to Wrong Planet. Lots of country music fans here. Well, at least I know of one. I'm kinda partial to Kenny Chesney, Martina McBride and Tracy Adkins m'self. I also used to live in Nashville as well.
