As a father of a daughter with Autism, I think that you're overgeneralizing quite a bit. People with Autism and Asperger's vary greatly in their personalities. While a lack of social skills may be a prevalent trait, it doesn't mean anyone on the spectrum has a hard time socializing.
"Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger disorder (AD) or simply Asperger's, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests."
From this definition, I get the impression that "difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication" is what defines AS. I'm very curious to learn why you think it is overgeneralization.
Personally, I have terrible social skills, but I'm not sure all of us do.
