-Aspies are nothing but fleshy computers
-Aspies stink at social communication and etiquette
-Aspies are apathic and do not care for the emotions of others
-Aspies are "anal retentive" and only care about useless factoids
-Aspies speak in a monotone devoid of even the slightest emotion
-Aspies don't swear
-Aspies talk with an air of superiority
-Aspies are doomed to stay single unless a girl takes pity on them
-Aspies are only male
-Aspies are little more than children and need constant care and supervision
-Aspies are only into "Autistic things"
-Aspies have embarrassing "episodes" (spasms)
-Aspies are just faking it for attention
-Aspies are your typical nerds/geeks
-Aspies aren't emotional


Gosh we are stereotyped so much...

I really want to challenge the idea that people with autism are somehow less deserving of fair and equal treatment in all areas of life.The very idea that they should be treated less favourably because they're just born different really disgusts me and is the main motivator of my vigorous campaigning online,even if it attracts trolls and bad attitudes from employers.

I back you up, the way some people look at autistics is just appalling.

It's also the main reason I'm making my feature film,follow @FMylifeoncamera as I learned that I'm not allowed to promote that here (as my previous thread on this forum got deleted and reported as spam).

Aspies don't understand sarcasm, metaphors or any other form of figurative language.

Yup, we are literal minded people who balk at the idea of even giving a joke. :roll:
