God what a pointless article! Should have known - Daily Mail.

Jimjams · 13/09/2005 21:27

Oh FFS.

You're right! (think I've read this idea before- what a pile of boolocks, bollocks I mean!)

Jimjams · 13/09/2005 21:28

"ll men are autistic to some extent" oh FGS. My MIL reads the DM - I can expect to get this drivel quoted back at me. Better warn dh- he'll hit the roof.

Couldn;t agree more trefusis.

dinosaur · 13/09/2005 21:31

No, trefusis, far from refuting what you say, I think you're spot on...

But this isn't 'new' news, is it? Istr there'd been a Panorama ages ago saying the same thing about teens, though an autism connection wasn't made then, it was just giving a theory of why teenagers behave as teenagers.

I do think it is interesting the way brain wiring goes haywire during adolescence. It's probably rather clumsily worded, but I think there is something very interesting in the sudden inability (rather than just lack of interest) in reading others emotions.
