woah...I actually watched those and...it's possible(obviously since ANYTHING is possible). She DOES seem kinda Aspie like and I do not think she does drugs so....just woah. I have never seen her interviews before.

She fidgets with her lip alot.

Here's the you tube version of the second video

here is one of her when she was 12 with her father at the oscars. She seems really shy here.

She's always playing with her lip in every interview, tv shot. Many still pictures show it too.

ok- that IS weird!! having never met another a/s person, it reminds me only of people on drugs...

when i watched all the bits before, her eye contact seemed EXACTLY like mine- reluctant, and possibly calculated- i dont mean in a bad way- just that i have learned- none- bad, too much- bad- flick eyes up sometimes- goodish...
it does not seem too natural and sponanious...

Oh, leave the poor woman alone. Isn't it bad enough that the entire world is projecting sexual fantasies onto her? So she fidgets, is restless, whatever. Some people are naturally restless. They need more exercise or something. She's too high functioning to be on the spectrum.

Leave Angelina Alone! would seem a silly thing to say given her occupation. By her own admission, she's a shy one. Again, curious. Needless to say I'm interested in AJ, but for reasons other than the obvious. Who she is as a human being, I find that very interesting. SHe seems like a very clear-headed, down-to-earth person. Again, this is an intriguing contrast to her hypersexual wild-child persona. People ARE allowed to have layers.

But I have trouble accepting Angelina Jolie as a reluctant sex-symbol.

Angie, I am a fan.

Well, if the rumors that she has had plastic surgery on her lips to get them that full are true, it may not be a stim... there might actually be some discomfort there.

Aspies I havre met seem do seem drugged up, now that you mention it. They seem to be either strung out on drugs, too much caffiene, or mentally ret*d. What's no surprise is that I myself come across that way. My eye-contact is reluctant, unsustainable. Whenever I meet someone else's gaze it's very uncomfortable. I just can't stand it for more than a few seconds. I will sometimes turn my head and look away, which would probably seem rude or puzzling.

Wait. I'm confused here.
How is suggesting that maybe Angelina be an Aspie, an insult? To her or to anyone else?
I certainly don't feel that way about myself.

Maybe she is aspie then. She took the whole "kiss my arse" expression to a new level of literality. :lol:
