I can deal with most of the other stereotypes, but this one just makes me lose faith in humanity.

Aspies can't make eye contact and are atheists.

Aspies don't like to be social and they won't play with other kids and don't want friends

Autistic people have no imagination and cannot create or write. Those who believe this need to read Tito M's (can't spell out his name) latest book "Plankton Dreams." What a great book. He sticks it to clueless people who run clueless special ed programs.

Autistics have no empathy.

Autistics are tragic people. Autism is a tragedy.

Autistic people can't write well online such as constructing sentences and using proper grammar.

Currently, as I am having a heavier-than-usual discussion about it on the NT-Aspie hotline: Aspies dont lie.

Then: Aspergers are the only technically innovative and generally creative people on earth.
I have to admit that Aspies are probably indeed (nearly?) the only ones to make technical inventions. We NTs are too people-oriented and, in the societies we have, too concerned about social issues. VIRTUALLY though NTs are as good technically as aspies, even if their strengths lie in different areas.

The worst: aspies are the more rational and more logic thinkers and high-functioning Aspergers can compensate their lack of cognitive empathy by thinking more. Which is the biggest BS on earth, and for humanity the most detrimental one.
