The way someone walks?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't get someones from how they walk.Just, how.

Not sure what you're asking here but some auties have a weird gait, such as myself...

People have remarked about the weird way I walk my entire life. I also walk incredibly fast without trying, much to their chagrin.

Don't you think it's funny that they notice how you walk (I walk on my toes) but then tell you to look them in the eyes? Whenever they comment on both, I ask them why they're looking at my feet if we're supposed to look at each other in the eyes!

Toe walking is not preferable though, it caused me chronic back pain and scoliosis.

People are always mocking the way I walk and run.
On my old high school there was a girl who always needed to laugh out loud and point out how hilarious I was running during gym class.

Pretty typical that people on the spectrum have odd gaits.
I don't seem to but the world moves so damn slow I get bored walking normal and go high-speed, I'd prefer to run.

Gaits are also pretty unique to individuals...Biometrics

An old family friend I hadn't seen in maybe fifteen years attended my mother's funeral many years ago. She hadn't seen me since I'd been a child/pre-teen. I hadn't known until she mentioned it that we had been respectively leaving and arriving at the same florist shop earlier that day. She said she had seen me walking away and knew instantly it must be me because, she said: "I recognized you by your walk."

People have distinctive walks, and are even distinctive in how hard they pound the ground when they walk. After seeing a person of couple of times, I could usually tell when this person approaches, based upon how he/she SOUNDS when they walk towards you.

But this woman hadn't seen me in fifteen years, and I was a child then, and an adult when she saw me in the street. My point is that by appearance she wasn't sure it was me because she'd never seen me as a grownup and how I would look as an adult physically. But she recognised the look of the way I walk because apparently it was so distinctive it stuck in her head from fifteen years before, and it also apparently hadn't changed.

That might not be a bad thing, Birdie. It might mark you off as unique, rather than disordered in some way.
