I dont know. People as people are a spectrum. Someone told me once it was not nice or not good to make a spectrum based on function-ability. I think instead of color spectrum it is more like a 3d sphere in which the sphere is hardwired neurology, another sphere for functionable personality and then another sphere for experience and influences manifesting in a uni-sphere. These three spheres are like the 4th dimension in which time becomes relevant to the 3rd sphere primarily and the dynamic between the three forming the static moment and point by which awareness is now in comparison to the dynamic sphere of the world outside my head. It could be abstract hog wash ultimately.
The N.T and A.S construct differences don't seem so very relevant if you consider humans are humans. It seems more a social sphere. After all I was not born called Mr. Autism for instance and the others the other people.
Seems baffling to me to separate people solely on this. It would just be to complicated.
Great point. Basically what I am trying to say is that people, whether you think of them on a color spectrum or a 3D sphere, are unique in at least some ways, before we begin labeling them. Now add a label, such as NT or AS, and you just add a level of complexity, but you have not altered the basic dynamic -- uniqueness. Uniqueness does not preclude aspies from being bullies, why would it? However, you are absolutly correct -- labeling almost inevitably leads to more problems that it solves.
What are you a scifi person -- 3d, 4d, etc?. That was refreshing to read. If this wasn't a virtual world we are participating in, I would say lets go get a pop and talk it over.
