The RDOS has changed over the years. I did it last week and was surprised with the changes and quality. A lot of the questions seemed generic or broad, as if it was written up by a layperson.
I wouldn't use this test to self-diagnose. It doesn't consider developmental history at all which I have a problem with. Personality traits, and preferences are not enough for an ASD diagnosis.
Baron-Cohen's AQ is definitely gender biased. Since it also doesn't consider developmental history I wouldn't use it to self-diagnose.
I love reading fiction. Dates definitely don't fascinate me.
Does anyone know what ASD trait this question,"I am not very good at remembering phone numbers", is referring to?

I'm female too. I was misdiagnosed with BPD, before I found out I had ASD.
