Dyspraxic and ADHD and ODD.
Also Alcoholic/Drug addict.
Oh, and Gay

I find a HUGE number of people in the queer community are dyspraxic/dyslexic/have aspergers
Also, a large number of ex-ritalin users in recovery from substance abuse...

Glad you brought that up - I realised a while ago that the only people I know in real life with dyspraxia are either male or lesbians!

I'm (mildy) dyspraxic, female and straight . As is my (married) sister, also mildly dyspraxic and straight. As was my late Mum ie mildly dyspraxic and also straight. I do however have a gay half-sister (I come from a very large family). She is one hundred per cent NON-dyspraxic! :)
