The second could technically be construed as cultural misappropriation, but I doubt the gay community would mind... 8)

Why is this in the political/philosophical forum?
It is building on my previous observation that autistic individuals can never approach self actualisation if they adopt a false neurotypical lifestyle with the intention of seriously emulating that mode of being...

"Read my lips..."
" I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli!"...
Oops...wrong quote...
"I am the President in my own mind and if I don't want to pretend to be neurotypical, I won't!" <stamp foot>

How can anyone gravitate towards reaching their inherent potential if they are in a state of denial?
As autistics, we will never, ever, organically think like neurotypicals...
And why the hell would we want to...<sigh>

Oh dear...
I've been in the caffeine again... :mrgreen:

Great post, Pepe. This is something I've thought about a lot recently, as I deal with my own stresses from a lifetime of masking. I won't go into detail here, but it is important for all of us to embrace what we are, no matter the label. And it's amazing how rarely people do this.

@HighLlama

There is a difference between being psychologically corrupted/damaged by incongruous/toxic neurotypical social protocols/philosophies and embracing the pragmatic realisation that we need to protect ourselves from many ignorant, biased and self-serving aggressive neurotypicals who will take any opportunity to knock the feet from under anyone who is struggling/different...
There is a valid argument to blend in...
We simply need to realise the distinction...

In essence, we as autistics need to develop/protect our ontological security against the selfishness of others...
To not "sacrifice the reality of our own existence to the deluded consciousness of others..."

While I am not stereotyping all NTs, simple life experience will validate the observation that the human psyche often embraces a dog-eat-dog mentality when push comes to shove in many, if not most instances...
Most people, particularly NTs, are driven by their emotional needs at the expense of intellectual integrity...
Many, if not most people, seem to embrace a state of denial to satisfy the lesser evolved aspects of the brain, namely the reptilian and mammalian...
This is the evolutionary heritage of our brutal and primitive genesis as a species...<shrug>

While self actualisation is not the be-all and end-all in our struggle to exist in this toxic life system on this wrong planet, it does allow us autistics greater philosophical autonomy (something Nietzsche would appreciate), create a psychological cohesion, and most importantly in my mind, give us a quintessential/inherent and justifiable confidence that is imperative in amalgamating our entire biological/psychological mechanism into a gestalt, (something Fritz Perls would appreciate)...

When I think about it, it is a damned good deal and something worthy of striving for... :mrgreen:

i am

i am as i am in
Will With Relative
Free Will to Be Free Now And
While i Agree to the specificity
of the 'Village People' Song About
i am; no part of my Relative Free Will
includes the Word i do not have a Choice;
Born without the Ability to Speak until age 4
And told i didn't have the Right to Exist
Basically Because i was too Weak and
too Androgynous too then in Trump
Town USA; i did not Choose
Vengeance; i Still Choose
Victory in Love and i Win
Free in
All that i Do Now

Being a Shut-in in my
Bedroom For 66 Months with

Wake to Sleep like a Dentist Drill in my
Right Ear and Eye in a way 'Pop-Eye' like
this too where no; No Drug at all would
Ease that Suicide Disease Then of Pain
And Numb of Type Two Trigeminal
Neuralgia; so, then i came
to the Wrong Planet
After 33 Months
to Tolerate the Pain
Enough to do another
33 Month Stint in Hell;
Got out at age 53 and the
Rest of What i am now is in the
History Above With Proof Below;
