Has anyone got any myths about NTs?

''All NTs are perfect, with no problems with anything, and they're so great and loving and caring, and full of empathy, and none of them are shy and none show any weirdness, and they are the gift of human nature.''

Now that is the biggest myth of all.

NTs are irrational and stupid.

NTs have a successful life.

"NT's have impeccable grammar and syntax skills."

I'm not saying anything bad about NT's, but a lot of them...they can use extremely poor grammar and syntax.

"All NTs are sheep, with absolutely no individuality whatsoever."

"All NTs are extroverts."

Empathy is required for compassion.

I would love to post in this thread but I can't due to threats. Sorry guys. In the real world, no one would threaten me and get the last word.

Threats made over the Internet are usually pretty empty.

I don't threaten, ever. The "last word" is my way of protecting myself.

Thats actually how I live my life. I surround myself with NT's and prefer them to anybody who is afflicted. I can never get on with fellow Aspies, they are too strange to me, then again, I am more normal then most of them anyway.

Since NT's are the majority, I honestly don't think they care what we think of them.

NTs are not the majority. There are more people diagnosed with some sort of disorder than there are people who aren't.

All NTs are bully (or like to bully people who are different).

No NT is socially inapt.
