Sounds like they were just bullies, Joe90. They were being deliberately mean, whereas the kind of laughter I was mentioning seems more like an involuntary reaction to impoliteness. Both are upsetting.

You will do that again if you don't understand what you did wrong.

He did nothing wrong. You are all normal.


Please define 'wrong' and 'normal'.

Wrong - what we were made to be able to feel as wrong
Normal - common, ordinary, intended. What I meant was that aspergers are researched but they forgot to compare them to normal åeople. Being in this forum, I know the exact reason for every listed problem here. Mainly because normal people have the same asperger symptoms. Funny that.


Erwin,

"What we were made to be able to feel as wrong" differs from culture to culture and from one person to another as well. (For example I didn't feel wrong writing the word "wrong", but you did feel that and corrected me.) So this definition is a bit vague.

I took a look at the dictionary: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/wrong.
My assumption is that you corrected me meaning "wrong" as "6. Not functioning properly; out of order" applied to onewithstrange, something like that.
My "wrong" was "4. Not fitting or suitable; inappropriate or improper: said the wrong thing."

As for the "normal - common, ordinary", people with AS make about 1% of the population. Not exactly common, that is.

Sorry, I don't exactly understand what you mean by 'ASs were not compared to NTs (all I have read about AS was based on comparison), and that NTs have AS (what might that mean?)'.

I still make people laugh and I never assume I am being laughed at.

"Wrong" does not depend on culture. Natural morals are the same for every human and if you don't see that, maybe you should research with more faith in people instead of making up your mind from the smart. I infact quite like those morals. Anyway, it doesn't matter if aspergers is thought to exist or not because if it doesn't, it'll begin to show itself soon. It's all good as long as it doesn't hurt people. But the reason it was ever made up was to SPECIFICALLY hurt people. I even think they made it so people like me would inevitably be included. A pretty impressive plan, I must say. Demoralizing people like me is even more important than demoralizing ordinary people. It's not nice though. It's not nice. So, for example, my normal classmates were not at all as socially adept as normal people are supposed to be according to these forums. Same applies for every other normal person I've met. Exactly the same issues as the people on this forum, same solutions etc. I also don't use gestures when I'm nervous so aside from the fact that normal people tend not to...seriously, why is that even counted as an asperger trait? What age do we live in? We should know this ten times over by now. Lack of self-esteem is what causes these traits generally. Pretty much what I mean by researching normal humans. Anyway, knowing human psychology is step 1 towards a perfect world, (which we actually found a formula to this way) yet they don't try to discover anything new at all. They're so sure of this old knowledge they have that they won't be open to anything new. They don't even try.
