Yeah it is quite a complex syndrome and affects different people in different ways. I heard that the term Aspergers is falling out of favour and being replaced with being Autistic Spectrum Disorders.
My dad and my uncle both have undiagnosed Aspergers. They struggle with executive function in that they can only concentrate on one thing at a time. It means that my dad never comes to the dinner table when he's called and my uncle struggles with the game of Go. I beat him at chess my making moves unrelated to what he is focused on and then waiting for him to forget about them again.
Both my dad and uncle love order. And both are engineers.
Personally speaking I have my own mental deficiency in that I am unable to experience an orgasm. I am too sensitive to sensory stimuli. Tactile defensiveness is also another symptom common with people on the Autistic spectrum disorder but not everybody has it. My husband went to a talk by a social worker who described how one of the Autistic people she was working with started trying to strip off in the middle of the street because his clothes were irritating him.
