| If you think you are disabled you will think like a disabled person. However, you have to be realistic. I accept the fact that my aspergers has many challenges. If I accept my disabilities and not my exceptional abilities I will not have a good life. I give the analogy of a boxer to my students. Sup... |

| I am an aspie. I am getting married and she has a 19 year old aspie son. I tell him the truth. He is brilliant. I am trying to fight all the negative that makes him want to give up. I hate the popularity of this attitude https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvZiqpjLZaA from both aspies and neurotypicals! |

| I think the fact that I am 20 times more likely to be famous ( for positive reasons like top in physics etc. I am not talking about famous for being a serial killer. Actually on average aspies are less violent then neurotypicals ) then a neurotypical is pretty cool. |

| But they stand out, not because they are weird! None of the 8 on both lists were people like Hitler etc. They stand out because of their exceptional abilities. Like I said why are aspies so damn humble? Its like these posts are saying that we only have disabilities and we should concentrate on them ... |

| I suppose the odds of being unemployed (if you are an aspie) are also greater. But the best way to help our unemployed brothers is to help them concentrate on their exceptional abilities and not be so negative. |

| I took the list of the 100 most famous people and compared it to the list of famous asperger people. I counted the people on both lists. There were 8. There should have been less than 1 ( 2/5). 8 is 20 times greater than 2/5. Therefore it is 20 times more likely for you to be famous then a neurotypi... |

| "Fact Four: Asperger’s occurs in one in every 250 persons." ... That means that there would only be 2/5of an aspie on this list... Huh? Since when does 1/250 equal 2/5? 1/250 equals 0.004, while 2.5 equals 0.4 -- a difference of 100 times. Total fail. Please try again.[/color] 2.5 does n... |

| I love it! Trump claimed ( for his taxes) that he spent $70,000 on his hair last year! His tax returns also showed that he is really bad at business and paid only $750 taxes because of all his losses! |

Neurotypical people can have some autistic traits like be very good at maths and science, I never said that neurotypicals cannot be good at math etc. As a matter of fact there are more neurotypical math geniuses than as... |
