Just been on you tube Aspergers we have large heads/foreheads eyes set slightly wider than NT's same looking jawline.

We definately have a look embryonic in fact.

There seems to be 2 different types of Aspies stunning good looking aspie to looking nerdy.

Give me a test out of 100 people and i no i will pick out most Aspies just by looking at facial charactersistics.

Jawline difficult to describe go on you tube and study the facial features.

I can differentiate between male and female eyes. not by picture in person.

Okay if you want me to be honest your eyes are 'different' and far apart but really other than that you look normal.

I'm always mildly offended by these types of threads, for some reason.

You can't really tell with me apart from the eyes. I've got a weird shaped cranium too. But so far it's only boys with MR that have matched it. And I mean that in the actual clinical sense.

I understand. No hard feelings. :-)

I think it's just that I don't like the idea of people being able to "read" a disorder by how I look.

Thank you studying my pic. I truly find this a fascinating topic. Thanks to Stripey for this thread. I take no offence at it whatsoever.

Gilder no problem i don't know whether it is just me or an aspie thing or just me.

You are in the first categorie of aspie.

just fed up of so call professionals knowing nothing about aspergers.

Down syndrome people have similarities we know it's just i notices 2 different patterns of faces within asperger people.

There is less than a handful of people in the world that class themselves as experts in AS.

So many theories and talk and not enough science thays why i volunteered for Oxford Universty study even then i knew what each test was for.
