		<title>Do People with Asperger&#8217;s Notice More?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I'm wondering if Aspies' resistance to change is related to the fact that we might notice or experience more details in life.  Situations that neurotypical people might feel are unchanging or monotonous might feel full of change for Aspies, since we are noticing more of the details of what's going on. ... I'm thinking maybe we're okay with change, but we simply get all the change we need in our day-to-day experiences -- even seemingly repetitive experiences. ]]></description>

		<title>Asperger&#8217;s High</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently shown the funniest parody of Aspie behavior I&#8217;ve ever seen. Granted, it also happens to be the only parody of Aspie behavior I&#8217;ve ever seen. I guess it&#8217;s one of those things people are sort of afraid to poke fun at, lest somebody take offense. But the &#8220;Asperger&#8217;s High&#8221; video &#8211; a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Autism and Digital Life: Managing Identity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(Or Why I Don&#8217;t Mention AS On Dating Websites) I&#8217;m aiming to make this entry the first in a series on using the Internet as an aspie. As someone who lives and works largely on the Net&#8211;my job is to create products that help businesses define and market themselves online&#8211;I&#8217;ve thought a lot about the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Do Women With AS Have a &#8220;Male Disorder&#8221;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Where are all the girls, the women, with Asperger’s?  Are there truly fewer of us than there are boys and men?  And what does it mean to be a female living one’s entire life with a “male disorder"?  What is the nature of autism in a female body and brain?]]></description>

I&#8217;ll explain about that in a second. First, a little about me: I am an adult with AS. I&#8217;ve got a blog of my own, and I program websites for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Asperger Syndrome and the Quest for Truth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is no coincidence that so many Aspies are scientists -- and atheists.  Scientists do not look for what is good or right; atheists do not look for what is unifying or comforting.  They look for what is true.  For what is.  Regardless of what anyone else says -- or threatens.  Did Copernicus have Asperger's?  Did Galileo?  I wonder.]]></description>

		<title>Tips on Being a Considerate Audience Member</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having attended quite a few different events where the audience consisted largely of Aspies, I feel both qualified and compelled to share some indispensable advice on how one ought to behave at such events. First of all, when I say &#8220;how one ought to behave,&#8221; I&#8217;m not talking about some archaic system of etiquette which [...]]]></description>

		<title>Perspectives on Social Awkwardness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a little over a week since this year&#8217;s Adult Conference at Northeastern University, and I am almost fully recovered. Every time I attend an event where the main attraction is a whole bunch of adult Aspies trying desperately to relate to one another, I come home feeling mildly depressed and in need of [...]]]></description>
