    No, it’s not on the autism spectrum because it isn’t a thing. It isn’t real.

    And unless you have some medical expertise in the area, you deciding he has autism based on traits you think autistic people have is just bigoted against people with autism. Because that is not in any way in your wheelhouse.

    Do you also decide on whether or not someone is gay based on ‘gay traits?’

      Well, yeah. It’s often real easy to tell.

        Is it now? Is it often “real easy to tell” if someone is gay too? How about Jewish?

            Do tell us all how it is “often” easy to tell if someone is gay or Jewish.

                Great. Tell us how your ears let you know if someone is a Jew.

                    Did you or did you not say that your eyes and ears were how you could tell if someone is Jewish?

                    Because it sure looks like you did:

                    So, again, how do your ears tell you someone is Jewish?

          It doesn’t work like that. Autism has physical attributes

            What attributes do all autistic people share and no neurotypical people have so that you can tell for sure someone is autistic through those attributes?

        No. Not real. It is no longer a diagnosis. That means it is not real. Your link even says it “formerly described” a disorder. Do you know what “formerly” means?

        And your self-diagnosis is also meaningless. Even psychiatrists do not self-diagnose.

                Oh, okay, then I guess people are still ‘retarded’ and not ‘low-functioning autistic.’

              it’s not us being pedantic, it’s reality. In reality, a thing can be redesignated and not be made unreal by the act. Sorry! It’s inconvenient I know.

          that is not what that means and the word “formerly” has nothing to do with it and you’re kinda being an asshole

            So doctors diagnose people with a diagnosis that is no longer used in the DSM to diagnose people? That is what you’re saying?

            Those doctors are committing malpractice.

            Please give me their names so that I can report them to their medical boards.
