If, neurologically, normality didn't exist, then the concept of autism wouldn't exist either. :roll:

In that case, what would autism be? A normal variation?
Anything that is a variation of normality is not normal.

What is normal? How can you even define normal? Everyone is different and everyone is an individual: therefore, there is no such thing as normal since everyone's sense of normality is utterly different.

It would be great if society thought like you. Sadly, they detect aspies on sight and through crap at us.

Neurotribes. You need to read Neuritribes, a compelling historical argument that autism's ALWAYS existed, has always been a color on the spectrum of humanity.

It's a pity society rejects us simply for being different. :(

^Not every single person in society rejects us. Does society have some sort of collective grudge against us personally? Then they would be like the Borg. 8O

Yes, they have a collective grudge against us.
Have you heard of social Darwinism?

I know many people [some of whom are close friends], and they are all a part of society. Does that mean that they should have a grudge against me and Aspergians/Auties?
Not everyone is a social Darwinist.

I hope that if I ever get a job, my boss won't be a social Darwinist.

At my work I'm lucky our field consultant (store managers boss) is trying to power me forward with the company cause he sees my potential dispite not being good with people and customers often misinterpreting something I say or do as rude (the store manager knows im in the spectrum)
