If you draw a triangle on a curved surface the sum of the three angles will be greater than 180 degrees.

Break the mold and tell them to stop staring or ask them "If I were to stare at you the same way, how would you respond?"

I think alot of us should be happy with ourselves even through the struggles. Chances are, if someone is giving you that much negative attention, there is something about you that they wish that they were. Perhaps they spent so much time conforming to fit in that they no longer have their own identity. So they hold people like us with contempt.

It's also a control issue. Some people are pissed off at those who don't conform out of "not knowing your place". They try to smack you down meanwhile these hypocrites demand the greatest treatment. Time to abandon caring about what they think because there is nothing worth modelling and their own behavior is wrong.

Neurotypical teachers do not allow the teaching of calculus until you have mastered the basics.

People see me as a ret*d. Not people I know, but people who don't know me do. I can just tell by how their body language is with me. When I'm waiting in the bus station people stand literally right close to me as though they think I'm too stupid to know there are people invading my space. When I'm in a shop if there's someone or something in the way people push behind me instead of the person who is really in the way or instead of going round the other side of the object what is in the way, etc.

''It's probably your body language you give off'' - yeah exactly, the body language that says ''hi I'm ret*d, present your rude intentions''. I am insulted by humanity.

ps. only women seem to see all my negative body language. Actually, it seems like men notice the vibes what I want them to notice, and women notice the vibes what I don't want them to notice. Like on the bus if I don't feel like anyone sitting next to me, men can tell by my face and so they don't, but women would just sit there regardless. I really like the way men obey my non-verbal rules, and I hate the way women exploit them.

You guys are making a false representation of NT's. Yes, there are NT buttholes out there, but auties and Aspies can be too. I don't deny that some NT's like to wipe us out; people like Autism Speaks or just plain rude NT's, but saying you want to wipe them out back is just as bad as them saying they like to wipe us out. I have NT friends and family I love, I love them just the way they are; not judge them because they have a different neurological wiring. Just because you're in a minority group does not give you an excuse to be prejudiced towards another group. Autism supremacy makes me sick. :roll:

Same. I think aspie48 just needs to qualify things by saying some and a few etc. He gave up autism supremacy (it wasn't much of an idea considering how many of us live) when I kept jabbing him over his inconsistencies.

thanks gedrene for taking credit for my actions. I'm helpless i needed you to guide me. i am so grateful now. the truth is that a vast majority of people hate us, thats a fact. it has nothing to do with your personal morals, the world is an immoral place.

No no. I think you're mistaking things. They don't hate. They just simply don't feel bothered.

Well I've learnt something on WP. I've learnt that lack of empathy and understanding is a normal human trait to do it to those who are a bit different to us. It is NOT a unique Aspie trait at all. I keep saying this but nobody seems to get it.

Aspies find understanding and empathy difficult to NTs because NTs are different to Aspies in some ways. But NTs also find understanding and empathy difficult to Aspies because Aspies are different to NTs in some ways. So NTs and Aspies alike are just as bad as eachother. So that is why I really can't understand why they use ''lack of empathy'' to put down on the Autistic criteria as one of the common traits, because everybody is like it to anyone who is different in some way.
So it's like, NTs are allowed to have a lack of empathy for Aspies, but when it comes to Aspies having the same lack of empathy for NTs it is considered a problem.

Doesn't anyone get it? I really don't think it's fair.

I said this when I first came on here. I got shouted at by a parent of autistic children several months later with no actual reasons, just 'proof' of various agressive accusations that amounted to say that it was obvious, and nothing else.

This is something that I've realized for many years. The reason that it is considered a problem from us and not from NT's, is simply because we are in the minority. And scientific and social consensus is created by those who form the majority. They are the ones who have the power to decide what is and isn't a problem, and we need to tell them to shut up and stop listening to them.

Really? Most NT's I know think it makes you flawed but full of potential. Like its a link between current man and a next step in evolution. :roll: I dunno I guess they have too high expectations that I might be some sort of hidden genius but otherwise no. I have not had a hard time with NT's.
