My generation just didn't have the Aspie diagnosis or even understanding in the 1970's.
Military service worked for me 90% of the time. Excelled at it! That 10%, though, was rough in the beginning until I learned to stfu. |

The future of conventional warfare I think will rely heavily on drones and intelligence gathering. I think main battle tanks will be gradually replaced by smaller and more nimble vehicles with less crew members and have a plethora of sensors making up for it. Nuclear weapons will always remain but ... |

Is being labelled a pedophile or someone who is sexually attracted to children a prejudice that most men have faced at some point in there lives? I have been labelled that falsely because i am attracted to 21 year olds. This is total garbage. You are not a pedo for liking a person who is considered... |

We all struggle to get through a day. I would hate to think we would pass any judgement...on anyone. I mean, really, we all know how it feels to be judged. |

In this time,2021, I have no voice. Being a white, CIS (I still don't fully understand this) gendered, and male means I am viewed as the "problem" with society. Trying to deal with all of that crap makes addressing my Aspie/ASD issues impossible. I mean if I am already dismissed for being ... |

I have been called toxic in the past. I have been called an a**hole so many times I started adding it as a precautionary statement when meeting someone new. Of course I had no clue I was an Aspie as I was in my 20's before it became a diagnosis. I truly can be difficult but I don't believe this NT m... |

The knowledge of this would have made my life so different in the '70s. Finding it know has answered so many unknowns for me as well as confirming my wife's thoughts and suspicions. |

Having been born 20 + years before Autism and Aspie were common terms, I truly have extreme disdain for those who try to push my square peg through a round hole. |
