Date: 2007-10-29 07:37 pm (UTC)Lots of geeks like to think so, but this kind of diagnosis is really limited to people who so totally don't get other human beings (yet at the same time, are smart) that it's blazingly obvious. That guy in the computer lab in the movie "War Games" would be a fine example.
My own social cluelessness (which I worked through in my early 20s) lay more in the fact that I was raised by two people who were socially clueless themselves. I simply never learned from them how to interact with other people. This caused much grief in high school, for sure.
But I don't have a mental disorder like Asperger's.
