Illogical Aspie?

Post Reply New Topic

Is it possible to be aspie and be illogical?
My Logic is very back-to-front for NT's and other Aspies say that I have no logic at all.
I display quite a lot of AS traits but to Aspies I seem to Lack Logic all together.

I dont understand how this is, because Ive known my logic's always been considered by NT's as back-to-front and its always worked for me. my back-to-front logic has always worked for me.

But i know other aspies who have no logic, like me theyre all female >.<

So i am logically confused now, Is there such thing as an illogical Aspie?
Do all Aspies have logic or do we stereotype Aspies into being Logical little professors?

i wouldn't know back to front logic or front to back logic, from a hole in the ground. my cat has more logical cognitions than i do. i totally lack "common sense" but i like to think that i have UNcommon sense instead.

Thanks ^.^ for your views on the matter ^^ yeah I feel my cat is also very logical too =)

There are plenty of people here who espouse theories that they've made up in their head. Once you point out how reality contradicts their pet theory, they throw a tantrum and insist that the facts are wrong or somehow irrelevant.
I'd call that pretty illogical.

So what you are saying is that logic is irralivent when it comes to AS because everyone has their own ideas about stuff when it comes to AS n what really makes an aspie?

I just want to be clear here and understand you correctly.

It's because you have to cling to the Earth's crust to keep from falling off the planet, living down-under and all.

But seriously, my vote is for everybody being different. The stereotype is probably that all aspies are logical, but like any stereotype, it's full of holes. Also, stereotypically, males are more logical. So embrace your femininity (did I even spell that right?) ! !!

I do agree that this seems common amongst those on the spectrum. However, in my experience, if you can provide a logical argument against their theory, as stubborn as they might be, they eventually concede and re-think their perspectives far more often than those who are not on the spectrum to.

Additionally, I think it's important to acknowledge that most individuals on the spectrum who do espouse these (often silly) theories, do so independent of input from others. So in once sense, they should be commended for their propensity for independent and original though. In another sense, they have to be forgiven for their preposterous theories and misconceptions because they were constructed from entirely within that person. They are actually quite similar to the types of erroneous theories scholarly individuals have espoused through out history.

I think all aspies are illogical. We have feelings and we are not robots and feelings are a illogical thing. They happen for no reason and we sometimes act on them than with logic. And also what an aspie may do may seem illogical for others but to them it's logical.

I use to be a Borg, but now I'm not.

What is your designation?

Species 8472.

I am male.

I am logical and illogical, It depends what mood I am in. I can be very rational, logic at at sometimes. At other times my emotion takes over.

I think what separates me from truly illogical people is I am always very aware of my irrationality. I see irrationality as an escape from the confines of my mind if that makes sense.

I don't know what ''a logic person'' actually means. Not sure what makes one logic and not another.

I have Aspie faulty logic. What makes perfect sence to me is strange to NTs

all minds need to explore the wild undeveloped lands beyond the fenced-in land of logic, now and then. your task is to develop these wild places and tame them so that they can be fenced within logic, also.

Why are emotions irrational and/or illogical?
