I don't if it is appropriate to generalize on this particular subject. I know that I am small, but I know one Aspie that is taller than I am. We shouldn't say "this is odd" Everyone is different.

bazza, please tell me your special interest relates to this somehow. I mean, I know aspies are supposed to be pedantic but this is ridicolous. :lol:

lol - no. I always wanted to be 6' but if I am honest, I didn't quite get there.

I'm 160cms tall. I've never seen an Aspie in real life, so I dunno how tall/short they are.

Are you sure about that, lol ? I always hated my height when younger as it made me stand out more and I looked older than I was...and for a long time and sometimes even now, it made me feel I looked less female, but I usually stand tall now. My mother was always telling me to stop slouching.

It seems as if the world was built for short people. I have to use a stall because the urinals are always too low. I can't get stuff off of shelves because they are down below my waist and my back just can't take it. I like stuff to be up high where my arms can feel good when reaching.

I'm 5 foot 8. Mostly the aspies I meet are either around 5FT 10 or smaller.

I never really thought about there being a correlation between Asperger's and height/weight. I myself am 5'6" and 120lbs, and two of my Aspie male friends are about 5'2"&180lbs and 5'10"&125lbs, respectively. I also go to a summer camp for people with AS, and there's great height variation there as well, even within my own cabin of 12-to-13-year-old girls.

I'm 1.83 meters tall and i weigh 73 kilos. (6 foot tall and 161 pounds)
So that's excactly the average height of an adult male in the Netherlands and proberbly below the average weight.
