Here's my social rule: Don't stim or walk funny in public. Don't dance, either, unless your friends are dancing.

Don't talk loudly in movie theaters.

Don't touch yourself in public, most people frown upon that.

If you are male, try not to zip your shirt tail into the fly of your pants after using the bathroom.

Also, try not to zip any body parts into the fly of your pants. (much worse)

And try not to twitch one eye too much and say "don't touch my hat!" all the time, even though you aren't wearing one.

Don't talk about your special interests unless they're typical interests like music or celebrities.

Don't generalize music, please.


For boys, walk and talk like a swaying drunk. Or at least that's what I find most NT guys do.

Pretty much everyone tends to talk about their interests that are not music or celebrities.
This rule is a bit absurd, to say the least.

Attempt to make as much eye contact as possible.

What I mean is "Don't talk about interests like washing machines or plants."

Also, don't wear one color on the same color (like pink on pink or purple on purple) unless you're wearing a blue shirt with blue jeans.

I do not consider that to be a social rule, but rather a fashion rule.

Ignore bullies at school until you get home and you can tell your mom about the bullies.

Don't try and force yourself to be someones friend, you either are or you aren't (trying to force a connection just makes you look creep)

Don't stare at the ceiling. It's a form of stimming, so people will know you're an Aspie.
