Not all Aspies are emotionally immature. Many, including yourself may be, but please, stop assuming and claiming that we all are.

Clear enough?



Then why do we have social deficits and executive functioning issues?


How do you believe that emotional immaturity causes social deficits and executive functioning issues?

I'm really curious about the executive dysfunction part, because it seems nothing like emotional immaturity to me.

Curiotical, you are not being insulted.
muslimmetalhead is expressing his opinion and not addressing you directly; you're reading far too much into this and your "How many times must I tell you?" post was extremely rude and condescending, as is your most recent response.

Lighten up a little with the lofty pronouncements, Ok? :wink:


Okay, I'm sorry about the way I worded and presented my argument. It was a little too harsh, but I along with other members here have respectfully explained to muslimmetalhead that not all Aspies are immature, and asked that he stop posting and re-posting this offensive generalization, but he continues to do it anyway, and it's very frustrating.

Yep, I can understand that - but when you've tried and failed, it's sometimes best to say nothing further.

I think one of my friends summed it up really insightfully for me a little while ago. He said that sometimes I act like I'm 35 but sometimes I act like I'm 12. I laughed because that reflects me quite accurately. I'm really 27 :)
