I'm looking up info because DD has a few autism red flags and delayed speech. I just read this article on being a woman with Asperger's and it took my breath away. I was saying "Yes" to more than half the post.

Is she just listing gifted traits (because a lot of it just sounds like typical intense gifted stuff to me) or is this really how Asperger's presents in women?
