Ever noticed that there is a correlation between aspergers syndrome and eye colour? I live in England and most of the guys I have met with aspergers have dark hair and brown eyes, with the exception of one having blonde hair and blue eyes.

You know I could be on the verge of discovering something new about aspergers that no one else noitced before, but maybe I am being a bit silly when I say that lol. :D

Maybe its because brown eyed people tend to be smart and people with AS are of above average intelligence. I don't know but do you think I have a point?

No. Aspies come in all varieties.
Myself, blue eyes and a redhead.

That sounds a bit too "superior race" to me. :roll:

Hmm, I dunno, most of the AS folks I know do have dark colored eyes, but most of the people I know overall have dark colored eyes, so that doesn't say very much. :mrgreen:

Isn't dark hair and dark eyes the more dominant gene? Of course there would be more such people.
I highly doubt it's linked to anything on the spectrum.

Dark brown/Dark brown (except my beard comes in red).

But that has much more to do with my Celtic ancestry (Cornish/Scottish) than anything to do with my neurophysiology!
