What evidence are you referring to? Jane Austin had Aspergers or that people with Aspergers can overcome it. (not perfectly but close enough to be considered normal)
That JA has AS

Her history and how she lived her life. By indications of what she did in her life and her reactions to them(she had a very mild case so the hints that indicate that she has it might be hard to find, but they are there). I apologize if I am seeming like a know it all. Don't come close to your experience but just understand, JA had AS

Diagnosing someone hundreds of years after their death is so hard to do that the only way a person would come close to making a clear case would be if that person had a very severe case of autism. There is no evidence to digest anything of the sort in fact I would say that out of most famous people I would find it very unlikely she was on the spectrum.
Diagnosing AS when a patient is right in front of you is hard enough. Let alone someone who you have never met and who lived in a completely different culture to the way we live today. I'm sorry.

Well, I think she had AS and you don't rhino. Theres no exact way to tell which one of us are right (even through your last post had a good point, but still there are some traces) I'll give it 20-80 years until someone finally finds out the truth if she had AS or not...
Thx for this interesting debate -

ur right. ignorance is such a huge part that type of labeling in general, whether it be racism or sexual orientation or bs like this, it always becomes negative because of some ignorant fool.It started out as a simple medical diagnosis. Not a slant against a group of people. It simply indicates IQ relative to the average population and is still in clinical use because "mentally slow" is what it means. Nothing more. It was never meant to be anything more than a diagnosis...like arthritis. Ignorance and stupidity made it what it is today.

I worked over the summer with a class of mentally and psyically disabled people some of the most caring kind people I know I would fight for them if anyone made fun
Of or thought they were lower than people who have no disabilities and I got in a fight at school over this -

I'm pretty sure all the creative, engineering and mathematical genius asbergers savants have brought to this world has made up for all the poorly functioning, non-contributing fuckholes with plain old boring, whatever functioning brains.

I don’t think a thread on the Internet like this with (at the time) like 8,000 active users would happen today, because a dozen or so autists would jump in to speak for themselves. I can only assume that level 1 diagnosis was quite rare back then.LOL, it didn’t. They never do. 😂

A coworker had a brilliant painting on her wall that I commented on. She said her son painted it. I replied with, I am not trying to diminish or to lessen who he is, but is he bi-polar. She had an amazed look on her face and said yes he is bipolar. My reply was that many bi-polar are extremely creative in manic stages and have difficulty communicating but often relay their feelings, emotions, desires and fears through other creative outlets.
Each person has gifts to give. A label or a condition does not change that
