| I think also it's a macho thing. They want to appear macho in front of their buddies. God forbid they are quiet and sensitive! The worst thing a macho man can be! :roll: And groups of humans behave in ways they never would individually. They get carried away by the group vibe and go to extremes. De... |

| Is this limited to NT males, or are just assuming that because it's not something you engage in? I grew up watching the fine programming on Fox, and therefore need to be reminded to refrain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJHoYKvaMP8 What these people are doing is far more aggressive than the chee... |

| Why do NT Males Hoot Like Gibbons? Why not? A loud 'hoot' is one of the easiest noises to make. Would you rather they sat still and silent like marble statues? Maybe because it serves no purpose and is EXTREMELY inconsiderate? And yes, I would rather they be silent, especially considering that it... |

| It’s absolutely not a red flag for autism, it’s just a common interest among children. It’s the intensity of an interest which is a symptom of ASD, not the subject. |

| Education is teaching people truth and how to find truth. Brainwashing isn’t a real thing, but I guess it could be considered teaching people falsehoods. |

| The issue is NOT the idea of a female villainous, it's the idea that what makes her villainous is that she falsely accuses people of rape. Would you write a male villain who antagonizes women by accusing women by accusing them of raping him? That's what makes it a sexist plot. You also need to reme... |
