The Gastro-Intestinal issues is interesting, I have had issues all my life with that. Everything fits me to a tee! Wow. Thanks so much for posting this link.

Given the context, I think the term "trainspotter" is being used to describe someone with an obsession that is bizarre and useless.
Literally, of course, a trainspotter is one who enjoys watching and identifying trains.
I don't think the author is trying to reference the movie "Trainspotting", nor suggesting that Aspies are drug users.

Wow, it's scary how many of these sound like me. Only a couple don't, but even those used to.

Much lol

has somebody been following me about and taking notes. that table is brilliant totally describes me, i knew i wasnt that weird.

I dont understand this "hanging out" thing i need a purpose to go and see people, and dont really know how to keep up with people, i have lots of friends that are all seperate groups and dont like mixing them together, thou all my closest friends are generally males, who dont need to have constant updates on your life.

Do any of the other women think you could add "disliked by other women" as a trait? The Aspie girls I know are wonderful, beautiful and talented, but teased and tormented by other girls & women, perhaps because we are socially inept and they attack that weakness

Woah...I do so much stuff on that list, and some friends of mine say I don't have AS because they say I don't do all of the stuff that is associated with it, but they must be automatically associating it with the more male AS...cooool :D

A lot of traits on that table also describes NT people. I hope they can be a little more specific.
