@Mitsu issue with girls is that they are usually quite good at hiding being autistic. like you talk to them and suddenly they go "of course I'm acting all hand movements, what do you mean? I have a super complicated routine where I count to 10 and shift my arms like this!"
> Boys with autism who have the most distinctive facial features cluster into two groups with very different sets of autism symptoms, the researchers found.
> Boys in one group tend to have wide mouths, combined with a short distance between the top of the mouth and the bottom of the eyes. They also show severe symptoms of autism, including language impairment, intellectual disability and seizures.
> By contrast, those in the second group have broad upper faces and a short philtrum. They are more likely to be diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, and to have fewer cognitive impairments and language difficulties compared with the first group.
