Would you say that overweight young men on public transport who use headphones have the Autism?

Sometimes they seem rather skittish too. Obviously I do not mean they are severely Autistic but perhaps they need a case worker.

Often they have very bad fashion sense too. No I do not need to be reminded that you like that thing that's written on your T shirt every time you get on the bus, thank you very much.

No.

I don't throw clinical labels about.

I can't say I have ever noticed a man as you describe, but neither could I recognise anyone as being autistic, on sight! Nor would I try.

Especially for no more than being overweight, wearing headphones in public or liking unpleasant Tee-shirts.

@TurtlePink i stayed away *laughs*
No.
Its why they call autism the invisible disability.
You cant predict by looking at someones physical appearance, if they are on the spectrum.
@MsBellows i see where you are trying to make connections .

But the person you are describing could also be severly introverted, desocialised, depressed, or suffer from one of many types of personality disorders or mental illnessness....or even trauma.

I see your concern, but unless you talk to them and learn, presumptions can taint our perceptions of what reality is.🤷‍♀️
