It's kinda astounding how, if people actually paid attention, they could learn a lot about seeking direct consent (which is an awesome social skill) from folks with Aspergers, rather than assuming such folks somehow lack the ability to not harass people.
(As an aside, I note that folks with Aspergers can also be jerks, but I suspect it's actually less common than the general population because they have a harder time getting the benefits from that sort of behavior.)
