Not at all, as far as researchers have been able to determine. There is no known link between AS and homosexuality that research has been able to determine.
There is a growing body of anecdotal evidence from adult asperger's groups across the globe and well known networking websites such as aspiesforfreedom.com and wrongplanet.net that aspies are more likely than neurotypicals (non-aspies) to self-identify, whether accurately or not, with sexualities other than hetero.
This is also supported somewhat by the considerable numbers of aspies reported as members by support groups for those who identify as asexual, pansexual, polysexual, and bisexual.
There remains a very real possibility that over-reporting may occur because of the constrictures arising from social awkwardness and emotional development (similar to aberrative behaviour in jails/gaols), lack of a suitable person to verbally clarify matters with (process with), simple social lack of comprehension, reduced social restraint in relation to curiosity or openess, etc.
A few observers would go as far as to say that if their were 100 orientations possible, 100 Aspies without thought would 'randomly' allocate themselves one-a-piece to each! [Given the differences between Aspies tend to be of a wider margin than those between non-Aspies due to reduced social typing and erxposure to peer pressures and modelling, this is not totally without foundation in my opinion].
not really, a person with Asperger's is no more or less likely to be gay that any one else.
no Aspergers is a human disorder which is impossible for any animal to have.
My mother-in-law showed my wife an article on Aspergers Syndrome. That's how we figured out that our daughter had it. Tell the parent to read the explanation of Aspergers on Wikipedia, and see if they can detect any similarities.
No, Annie Lennox doesn't have Asperger Syndrome. Annie Lennox doesn't show any outward signs of Autism - although women on the spectrum often hide their symptoms.
Aspergers syndrome is a disorder having to do with a person's ability to interact socially. Because it is a social disorder, the general health of a person with this syndrome would not be affected. The life expectancy is the same as that of any other person. The movie "Rain Man" is about a man with Aspergers (or somewhere on the Autism Spectrum). It may give you a better idea of what it is.
No, it does not have any effect on homosexuality.
Nope just genotypes. However in many cases that I've read or seen many people with aspergers tend to have red hair or hair with reddish highlights.
Aspergers is a type or form of nonverbal learning disability where someone has trouble communicating and learning because of their verbal skills and difficulties with verbal forms of communication.
here is no damage about homosexuality. It is a natural sexual orientation like any other orientation.There is no damage about homosexuality. It is a natural sexual orientation like any other orientation.
No. Anger is not a symptom of any sort of autism spectrum condition. But people may end up angry at having to live in a world where there are no adaptations or concessions for them, and where there is so much stress on them as a result.
Homosexuality is a sexual orientation. It is natural, and doesn't require any help.
Homosexuality has nothing to do with the educational system or any other systems!
No, but he does have Dyspraxia, a condition which is often found alongside Asperger's or other Autism Spectrum disorders, which is why he may appear somewhat similar in some ways to a person with Asperger Syndrome.
