Mild/Moderate/Severe Aspergers, as I see it:

Mild

You have some quirks/eccentricities, but you've basically got your **** together, and have most of the following:

- A reasonably good job, or you're on course for a reasonably good job, e.g. university
- Friends, and significant sexual experiences
- A car
- Your own place


If they can do all that then why are they even diagnosable?

I prefer to see myself as an individual and not as a functioning level. I think that member was very vague when he came up with that stuff.
