I don\'t find calling Aspergers Syndrome a learning disability as offensive at all. Its true. There\'s more that goes into learning than academia. If you cannot learn social cues in school, chances are increased that you might have it. Therefore, logically it is a learning disorder. Facts over feelings every damn time. People with Aspergers who get hurt over every tiny little thing creates a bad image and you all only make it worse for someone like me who is trying to break out of his damn diagnosis. You all make people with Aspergers look weak and need protection, assistance and help from those without the diagnosis. Its disgraceful. If anything, if you\'re diagnosed with the disorder, you should not be content to live within it. You should be looking to hide and mask it, lest you be looked at as lesser. It is not the job of others to change their minds. It is your job to prove it is not your defining characteristics.

Could we add notes to the end of works that specify where they land, specifically? It would cut down on the need to search other pages for info on works that fit multiple subgenres, whether it be the work\'s page, or the page of one of the genres and cross-referencing it with other parts. For fear of describing it poorly (which I\'m pretty sure I am), I\'ll just give examples:

* \'\'Manga/LoveMeForWhoIAm\'\' (Non-binary)
* \'\'VideoGame/TheMissingJJMacfieldAndTheIslandOfMemories\'\' (Lesbian, [[spoiler:Transgender]])

I\'m sure someone else can word the tags it better if it\'s accepted (and make it not feel like tags on an 18+ site, but maybe that\'s just me), but I feel like it\'d help a lot, especially for works that don\'t have a page for that kind of media, like non-binary or transgender. Yuri works could benefit from that as well due to the fact (which is mentioned on this very page) that there\'s nothing dividing the \
