It's not that boys are more prone to having autism than girls. It's that they're more likely to be diagnosed with it. Because mental diagnosis generally favor males to females. And while signs are shown at an early age, that doesn't mean they will get diagnosed at an early age. Now that autism is better understood now, it's not uncommon to be diagnosed with autism as an adult. Anthony Hopkins for instance was diagnosed in his 70s.
