Aspergers Transgengder

So I found out a few months ago that I have aspergers, kind of like a really high functioning autism. Anyway, while looking through it and realizing "so that's what's wrong/different with me," I found an article that says aspergers is often comorbid (occurs with) transgender and fetishism. So, I'm wondering if my feminine/sissy/transgender side is not an actual, for lack of a better word, condition. I.e., I'm not really born in the wrong gender, but that this is just a last reminant of a mental condition that's haunting me. So, I'm not really sure where I stand on my view of myself; anyway, I was wondering if anyone else here is aspergers/autism, and that's what causes feminine issues?

p.s. I havn't been around for awhile cause I was in a purging phase, I'm nearing the end of the semester and using this as a coping/stress release mechanism; so i'll probably return to purging in a few weeks.

Aspergers isn't really too bad, it only really causes some social hinderence, I myself was listed with it when I was in primary school but I don't believe it effects my gender issues and I don't hold to the idea I am a condition or its some phase caused by another condition such as Aspergers.

To me its just another barrier but a minor one. In my view be who you wish to be, don't let anyone tell you its just some condition you can shake off. The best thing to do is to search your feelings and follow the path you believe is right.

Theres no shame in being yourself, if you truely believe your a girl deep down then you are but it is a complex issue for many to deal with in real life and I can understand how you feel.

i have it. and so do at least 2 others here that i know of. i didnt find out till 9th grade and when i read all the symptoms and stuff i was like "EVERYTHING MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW!"

being diagnosed with aspergers has really helped me come to terms with who i am. i've been and outcast and considered a freak all my life. i hated myself, but i couldnt change the way i was. and when i got the diagnosis, everything about myself started to make a lot more sense and it didnt seem so bad.

i began to accept who i am. i accepted my crossdressing. i accepted my off beat attitude towards the world and how i never let anyone really get inside my head. and now i've come to love who i am. i wouldnt want to be "normal" for all the money in the world. i love being a "freak". it makes life interesting.

i am brittany her royal puffiness!!!

im officially in love with the color pink.

*hugs and kisses for all*

Correlation =/= causation. If Aspergers actually caused transgenderism or vise versa then it would be true in 100% of cases. There might be some associated gene or something, or it could just as easily be a huge coincidence. Hard to say. I think you'd be better off viewing them as separate aspects of yourself.

Kimi, thanks for bringing this topic up. Yes, I've noticed that's true in my case too, the Asperger syndrome tends to encourage feminine feelings or else, there's some other connection. It would be nice to be good at math and technology and love wearing feminine clothing, but without the social consequences of Asperger syndrome.

Please Kimi, don't purge. You'll only end up buying feminine clothing all over again.

Peace and Luv,

Purging doesn't work although I can understand why you might think about it.
Generally speaking people who do have a tendency to cross dress whatever kind of label they may use to desribe how they do, are hard wired to and in nearly all cases have a a long episodic history of doing so often from childhood. I strongly suspect if you were to purge it wouldn't be long before your mind started drifting back again to what in reality is a part of you. The most important thing is to find a way of expressing that side of you which causes the least social problems in your life and that will vary from individual to individual.
If you wanna message me about it, that's okay.

Nice to know I'm not the only aspie; though mine is really minor, I "function" pretty well, and am respected/view as an intelligent individual, im just kinda quiet. Anyway, with this I was wondering whether my "gender issues" are related to being an aspie. As I'm more of a sometimes sissy, I don't want to insult those here that actually endure the effects of being born in the wrong gender by grouping myself with them; if my concerns simply stem from being wired differently. As in my self concept, I can accept myself as being transgendered; but not really as a sissy (go figure, considering that I'm here). As I have no problem being a female or a male; but I don't want to be in between (androgenous/metro/"sissyboy") So as you can see, I'm not really sure what I am or what I want to be. I've been purging, cause if my concerns are just due to being an aspie, I didn't want to give in to an autism spectrum disorder (that's the actual medical term). I was doing very well; but, I got too stressed from my nursing class, and for some reason, this is a coping mechanism. As far as the whole thing about throwing out the collection only to start again, I never had a collection to begin with. I'm not "turned on" by wearing womens' cloths, it doesn't feel "right," etc; it feels different; but, that's due to the cut of the clothes. I'm "drawn" to being feminine, but, I don't get anything out of crossdressing/being feminine. When I've done it, it felt like "okay, now what" like I was expecting to see a rainbow come out of the sky. So as you can see, I'm not sure what I am.
