are nt men nicer than nt women

Post Reply New Topic

this kinda from last post I did aspie women and boyfriends. In general are men with nt alot more tolerante to people with asperger than women. Take me I can talk to alot of men with nt with ease. They are very easy to talk too, and they don't tend to get as offended as much. With nt women (at least under 35 in my case)alot have no idea how to talk to people with autism disorder.
And what read around here is that alot aspie women here get along better with nt men than they do with nt women.

It's true for me.

I understand nt men more than women. The women I understand are either from a different culture or are a little odd themselves.

I chose an nt male psychologist over a female one, because I feel more comfortable. Not to stereotype or anything, but I feel nt women still expect you to act nt even if they know you're not. I don't feel that pressure from men.

It's unfair to generalize one or the other as "nicer." It depends on the individual.

I understand your point. But in general, I have found women to be less understanding of it than men. I don't approach everyone like this, no, but there is a general norm of that. "Nicer" is not specific enough.

I am a woman and I have always felt more comfortable around men than around women. Men are usually easier to read, and more straight. The conversation is also better, because they talk about more subjects, women are usually interested in the same subjects.

'tis curious reading this. I myself am a male, and I've always preferred females.

I think it's about equal. Men are more likely to punch you in the face; women are more likely to spread nasty rumors about you. There are nice women and bitchy ones. Same with men. Stop stereotyping the sexes--they're really not that different, you know.

You are posting some interesting questions.

I think "nicer" depends on what qualities you are referring to. If you are referring to something like not getting offended, then I'd say yes, this it true of males more than females. I find males much easier to get along with. I wouldn't say they are "nicer" though, just "easier".

I also find males easier to get along with. I'm more able to identify with and relate to them. The best friends that I've ever had were men. I've always found that guys were easier to talk and listen to.

I get along better with geeks than non-geeks.

Why would sex or gender matter?

Theres a segment on Tony Attwoods guide to as that says that individuals with asperger will probably find less trouble living abroad/interacting with the opposite gender.

Why?. Pretty simple, most of us are bound to make social mistakes every now and then and when youve been living in the same place since you were born... people expect you to know better. As for the opposite gender thing according to him when you make a social mistake they may attribute it to the fact that you werent raised in the same way and you are just trying to learn how to interact with them better everyday.
As for the moving abroad: People are more understanding if you havent been raised in a place(its expectable to have some trouble understanding the culture...)

Cant say its 100% true but it made a lot of sense when I read it on his book.

Men are just nicer than females in general right?

That wasn't very nice!

Oh I see what you did there.

For me it really depends on the person, male or female, if a person seems dangerous to me then it wont matter for me either way.
