-- Posted by Anonymous at 9:43 am on Aug. 19, 2008 Yesterday I met this guy who wanted to kill himself. He claims no body likes him and he told me he had "wots called XXY and autisum" can someone explain what that is (no google search copy and paste) Ive already  looked it up.. I want to know how this all affects his behavior...because at times hes kind of awkward. -- Posted by plumc0la at 9:44 am on Aug. 19, 2008 I believe XXY is when you are born your chromosomes are messed up. -- Posted by Ancient Rights at 9:45 am on Aug. 19, 2008 XXY is most likely Kinefelter's syndrom where someone has an extra sex gene. -- Posted by penguinsrule at 9:45 am on Aug. 19, 2008 Quote: from plumc0la at 9:44 am on Aug. 19, 2008 I believe XXY is when you are born your chromosomes are messed up. duh lol XD and xxy is klinefelters.... -- Posted by Anonymous at 9:47 am on Aug. 19, 2008 HOW DOES XXY AFFECT HIS "BEHAVIOR" -- Posted by Just Waiting Here at 9:47 am on Aug. 19, 2008 XXY would probably be the fact that he has one extra gene.  He has two X genes, which would be what a female has, and he has one extra Y gene (Which is found in males). As Ancient Rights said, it's probably Klinefelter's syndrome... which if I'm not mistaken, MAY cause autism. -- Posted by Anonymous at 9:50 am on Aug. 19, 2008 I forgot what autism was... -- Posted by AngelofUnmercy at 9:51 am on Aug. 19, 2008 autism is where is mentally retarded, if he can speak than it's very mild, but i causes the same behaviors that small infants would have -- Posted by vicky91 at 9:53 am on Aug. 19, 2008 it affects his behaviour, by his reading and writing skills and his communication skills. -- Posted by blacksash7022 at 9:57 am on Aug. 19, 2008 Quote: from AngelofUnmercy at 9:51 am on Aug. 19, 2008 autism is where is mentally retarded, if he can speak than it's very mild, but i causes the same behaviors that small infants would have I am sorry but this is wrong autism is the learning disability people have that causes the person that has it to be socially awkward and yes sometimes they can't talk either...but that is not all it is there is a 7 year old boy in an elementary here in Florida and he is autistic and the teacher wants him taking out of the class for it and I and all the other people in my school believe it is WRONG!!! -- Posted by fizzle123 at 10:00 am on Aug. 19, 2008 Quote: from AngelofUnmercy at 9:51 am on Aug. 19, 2008 autism is where is mentally retarded, if he can speak than it's very mild, but i causes the same behaviors that small infants would have fuck off you troll my cousin has autism and no its not mental retardation. Its called autism spectrum disorder and their are alot of diferent types, Its hard for a person with autism to show emotions,and they dont like change, i.e change of routine, or getting a baby brother or sister, or change in parents, divorce or what not, they often selfharm because it helps them get frustration out, when getting frustrated flapping of the arms or weird or odd behaviour can be seen.. my cousin robbie has autism asbergers and he can speak the same as anyone else.. he isnt brain damaged retard!. They show frustration because they see no logic in anything, they may queston things such as a bag of ice, why would you need ice in a bag, like ice cubes, because obviously youre having a party and dont have enough trays to freeze it. BUT why do you need it? they dont see why you would need it.. and i dont know what the other one is. try googling it.
