I was born female and transitioned to male and this fits me perfectly. I think that, had I been socialized as male, I would have been diagnosed in childhood. many of my coping strategies came from having supportive friends as a kid.

This is a very accurate list. Most of these describe me really well.

90% of this fit me to a T. I printed it off and highlighted my traits, and I'm going to show it to the psychologist I eventually get to test me. I had no idea a lot of the stuff I considered standard behaviour was in fact indicative of female aspies :D
