Guest guest Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 What I'd like to know is why it's thought that Jane Austen was an Aspie. I'm reading Pride and Prejudice and she goes on and on about social things. I know she's satirizing to some degree (and don't know to what degree)and she's a very good writer, but she knows so much about the social ettiquette of her day and seems to understand people very well. Maybe she made it her study, but what makes her Aspie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
