Yes, quite. You are right - both are stressful situations for an Asperger's person. However, I'd take a stab that your girlfriend's son who has Asperger's, fronts a band and plays a lead role in a play for its pure enjoyment - as opposed to Abz who has entered the Big Brother house, for, hmmmm ........the monetary element, at a guess?? Would he have done it purely for 'the experience', I wonder?
Frankly, I am questioning whether Abz needed to tell the nation that he had Asperger's in the first instance, or whether it was to gain credibility of some degree?
Anyway, regardless, I'm not disagreeing with you entirely - I'm just reserving judgement temporarily, and I could be completely wrong about him.
