It will still be on the spectrum, but now it wont be called Asperger's. We'll all just get lumped in as having 'autism'. Personally, I will never describe myself as being autistic. To me, they are two very different things even if they are both a part of the same spectrum.

Really it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Red and yellow are both part of the same spectrum, but you'd never just lump them all in together and call them 'colours', you'd refer to them as red and yellow, because they are different colours.
Thanks for this!
