I don't think she was an aspie, I just think she hated all the double-talking society does; not unlike just about everyone here.
Plus, she and the characters in her books didn't have time for or interest in the 90% socialization crap that runs the working world.
Yeah- what a terrible person. </sarcasm>
Seems like a lot of aspies are very intimidated by her, though.
Well, my main problem is it's too easy to poke holes in her ideal world when comparing it to the reality of how things actually work. It's not that there isn't
any truth to her ideas. There's some truth there, but it's not the whole story.
Also, her characters just don't strike me as real people. They're just put there to hammer you over the head with her philosophy.
