Hmm... Interesting. And for me deeply troubling. Several members of my family have excelled academically, only to break down later on and then find that they're unable to resume life in the same way. The individuals to whom this happened are/were all male.

The talk was showing that the way genetics works is the same in males and females, but that diagnosed females have more autistic-related genetic traits on average. Though it wasn't spelled out, this seems to me to be just a reflection on the lower rate of diagnosis of females with less overt traits.
