Con: - Some of them have girlfriends

Maybe because he believes Autistic people are interior & mostly anti-social.

i dont know about autism but i believe most people who listen to electronic music suffer to a certain degree a form of ADHD. seeing as the one doing the listening is usually looking for a form of entertainment that causes distraction in a 'theoretical consecutive' intermittent manner. regardless whether the listener is consciously aware of this or not.

I've been listening less and less to IDM / glitch and more and more to indie / pop / rock. Does that mean my ADHD is diminishing?

the form of which i'm talking about fluxtuates in intensity, it all depends on what you're listening. so i'd say yes, if you're listening to less abstract music it shows your appetite of being distracted has diminished for the time being.

My favorite: - Sci-fi and movie references in the music and song titles.
I do picture rdj as somewhat autistic, but that's probably because I see myself as somewhat autistic and I admire the guy so of course he's gotta be like me.

apparently squarepusher is, according to his wikipedia page about a year ago.
who cares anyway. autism is more of a personality trait than a disorder.

Your definitioon of 'sci fi' is 'retro' anyway. Making 60's proto future noises now is daft in your scheme of things. Why don't you make music that can be only made now? You can download all the classiccs, start from there.

obviously they are not autistic, but in a gradiation scale, they are closer than other genres artist, as people making (and listening) this kind of music tend to be very introspective and asocial...

you wouldn't consider music by autechre or aphex as psuedo attention deficit music? just to name a few prime examples of artists whose songs need to be listened to more carefully (which contradict the ADHD part) but at the same time it is arranged in a manner to distract someone every so often. wouldn't that be considered some sort of disorder? it isn't background music, its not a simple song you can listen to in the car without it causing you to be distracted from the actual environment around you. the fact that you have to listen to it carefully may contradict my diagnosis but not entirely. what would you call someone who is infatuated with music that in a brief amount of time causes many distracting sounds.
