Yes, there's one.

The two biggest things that I can actually call hurdles would be

  • the emotional/social handicap I explained in the other reply, probably Asperger's. I feel like I was behind in all steps of development in relationships, and it honestly brought me a lot of pain that I couldn't figure out how to people. It was hard to make friends, to date, to articulate feelings or even to have them, or to place the right hierarchy of importance to events and people in my life. I've just recently talked to a shrink and started to get a handle on this mess

  • muscle incoordination: terribly annoying, always been there, dialed up to 11. Can't play sports, can't dance. I can barely get my hands to go where I want them, let alone when my legs are involved. Gym only helps marginally, it's really not a question of strength, nor training.

edit: add the scoliosis. Ow

-Do you have more or less libido than the norm?

As far as I can tell, more, but with wild oscillations. I can get some weeks where I'm basically dead, but usually it is high. I couldn't tell you if that is really abnormal but I know in relationships I've always been the one wanting more.

-Could tell us more about the mental anomalies ?

I have always had great difficulty relating to people, understanding social cues and norms, and managing emotions. More when I was younger. I can only describe it as having incorrect emotional reactions in quality and quantity. It's likely I'm simply on the spectrum and I'm definitely going to get that tested more rigorously soon now that I know about this

I also suffer intensely from anxiety, which is a probable symptom. I have a handle on it now and live with it, but it really never goes away

I don't recognize this in myself. I wasn't a cruel, violent, or disobedient kid. I was more asocial than antisocial.

Afaik this could be a byproduct of statistically biased research on XYY in the 60s and 70s. I don't know though.
