If people didn’t speculate, lots would never get diagnosed though. Being diagnosed can be a positive thing if it gets you the help that you need.

Being on the spectrum can be a positive thing.

That’s true but I am quite grateful I didn’t recognise the “spectrum” traits I suffered with as a child as I grew up believing I was like everyone else. My life would have been changed I reckon and perhaps not for the better, who knows.

Those traits included being largely non-verbal.

Indeed, having that diagnosis can be crucial to a person's development and wellbeing. I'm not at liberty to discuss this in detail, but like you, I know from experience, shall we say.

I don't know whether I'm on the spectrum or not. Never had a diagnosis myself but I suspect I am with some of my traits.

I’m probably similar, but never felt the need to see where I am.

The only negative is the abuse from people who think they abuse the system in order to gain advantages, but they seem to be cynical, older people who expect the worst of people rather than the best.

Glad it’s worked out for you. If you’re happy, there’s no reason to think what if.

I genuinely didn't realise he was hated this much! Seems OK on inside the factory, that's the only place I know him from though.

My taste in women is superior to Stephen Fry.

That’s only because he rides a different horse than you do:-).

I've not felt the need to get one either.

I agree, there is a pattern of misguided judgemental ignorance on issues like this. Like you say, they see the worst or perceive it to be so. Cynical phrases about "mental health" when they have no idea what thar person's life is like.

Gregg Wallace: Masterchef host denies inappropriate sexual comments

Wallace says an incident was investigated, and the outcome was "I hadn't said anything sexual".

The BBC 'bosses' must spend 90% of their time dealing with complaints that their presenters are sex pests.

I wonder if he asked her to look at the buttery biscuit base of his penis.

The BBC said it does not tolerate "any form of inappropriate behaviour" and has "robust processes" in place.

Hahahahahahahaha.

I read that and thought the same thing :)

It would be interesting to know what he said and if it would even make muster for a carry on film.
