It is likely that autism isn't just limited to early childhood onset, but what separates it clinically is the social isolation. Clinically, it may be more how society treats an alleged autistic person.
I would suspect some cases where autism is comorbid with another disorder that is is likely due to social rejection theory. In genuine cases it will be a mutation in the SHANK3 gene.
Autistic traits have been found in girls with eating disorders, and I wouldn't be surprised if they are common with bodybuilders as well. Whether they have the mutated shank3 gene, or are subject to social rejection is only speculative at this point. Nonetheless, they have been afforded a somewhat easier path to avoid the chronic isolation. Women have all sorts of tools available too look better, men just hit the gym. Those who are preoccupied with sports or politics will find social comfort with fellow fans or ideologues.
For Males who are more cerebral and have asperger's, particularly those who can't put on body mass, they are less likely to pursue interest heightened by others. Sports is kind of dumb after all. So they will more likely pursue intellectual self rewarding pursuits such as math, science, and programming which achievement may be their only source of dopamine. They tend to have multiple copies of a normal SHANK3 gene which forms brain synapses. I suppose it is possible that someone could have multiple copies of a mutated shank 3 gene
While it is true that more people with asperger's may likely be libertarian, after all John Galt and Howard Rourke would likely have asperger's-Galt of Course what what Ayn Rand considered the perfect man. Libertarians are more in tune to the science of law. Social conservatives may be more in tune with the divine law. The natural law and the divine law are politically linked to some extent. Though there are other schools of thought out there, they are only thought not law. The truly libertarian school is more rigid about following the science of law. Compromise simply gives into evil after all-it is what gave us slavery, allowed it to continue, and lead to a civil war. To deviate from the science of law is to allow the government to use force to deprive people of life, liberty, or estate.
There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil. The man who is wrong still retains some respect for truth, if only by accepting the responsibility of choice. But the man in the middle is the knave who blanks out the truth in order to pretend that no choice or values exist, who is willing to sit out the course of any battle, willing to cash in on the blood of the innocent or to crawl on his belly to the guilty, who dispenses justice by condemning both the robber and the robbed to jail, who solves conflicts by ordering the thinker and the fool to meet each other halfway. In any compromise between food and poison, it is only death that can win. In any compromise between good and evil, it is only evil that can profit. In that transfusion of blood which drains the good to feed the evil, the compromiser is the transmitting rubber tube . . .
When men reduce their virtues to the approximate, then evil acquires the force of an absolute, when loyalty to an unyielding purpose is dropped by the virtuous, it’s picked up by scoundrels—and you get the indecent spectacle of a cringing, bargaining, traitorous good and a self-righteously uncompromising evil.
-Ayn Rand, for the new intellectual
But don't let the left off the hook simply because they support spending other's peoples money in the name of empathy, or because they pretend to support various groups. Some of them are hooked onto junk theories of Marxism,feminism, and victimhood and to various degrees. And when the political groups they once supported are of no more use to them (such as gays and jews), they are discarded. They weren't showing any genuine empathy towards them, but were just exploiting them until their use ran out. If someone decides to make an argument with facts and statistics, they will quickly go into a tantrum of yelling various words ending with "ist" and will not allow a speaker to utter a word. Although, these tantrums could be true for those that hold delusions as well, tantrums are also said to be attributed to the autistic as well.

Nicely summed up. I'm always impressed w/comments that are more in depth than the original content ;)
Pretty naive of our author not to include the left in this autism examination but I read it anyway hoping perhaps there was some un-biased content hidden within. The feminization of society is good for feels, unfortunately there are far too many out there that have and will take advantage of an over empathetic host/society. Rendering hose society as pillaged, weak, then forgotten.
