I know people with aspergers

whyaspergers

I know poeple with aspergers and rather than aske them as I know they get upset easily, I thought I would ask on this forum, 'why do some people with aspergers sound american when they are not american'?

  • I have literally never heard of people with Aspergers sounding American before. Outraged's post makes a lot of sense though - I've often wondered why I have basically no accent apart from when I'm furious or drunk. Nearly all my friends growing up had strong neo-Kentish/Mockney accents (for some reason everyone down my way sounds like they're from East London despite the fact they're not) so you would have thought I would have followed by their example but no. I've never been particularly susceptible to trends, a trait that I believe is strengthened by my Aspergers, so this is probably why
