Bruh! I'm on the spectrum! Love love love meeting others like me here! Especially when the wider society can get...oppressive at times. Gotta keep the mask up or you'll be judged (learned how to do it to such a degree that most people don't know I'm autistic). Gotta keep the quirks in check until your around other people you know jus to avoid judgement and suspicion. It sucks, hard.

Some of us (like me) don't know what are my quirks. I think it's speaking like too much (verbiage) but since I was masking all my life and not being concious about that... Probably I never going to know what my quirks are.

But remember, you play with the cards you've get... Some of us play in Hard mode.

Can't always hide my quircks either, or at least are very subconcious about them in my head in public. Talking too loud when excited is one of mine. So is avoiding eye contact, though I learned ways around that (looking at the persons nose or forehead are good strats I find). Fortunately I'm with an advocacy volunteer group trying to change all that! DiverseX.

I think the disproportial amount makes sence. Since lot of Bronies and Furries aren't like the "normies"

Ahhh same! I was also diagnosed with Asperger's. I just didn't wanna say it cause....will you probably already know the drama attached to that these days. And it'd make sense that the @normies@ (I can't do the quotations here for some reason), least most, wouldn't be interested in such weird things. It's too out there, too outside the box.
