NTs

Post Reply New Topic

I seriously dislike NTs. I have some NT friends but no joke, I didn't know yhat 90% of my friends have some form of autism. I told them about Wrong Planet and they thought it was really cool.

My feelings about people are the same regardless of their neurology.

Well tons of NTs I know are jerks just because they think they're cooler and more normal than me so I'm just speaking from my point of view.

Me too. Personally I know AS jerks and NT jerks.
Although in general there are a lot more NT's and therefor more NT jerks running around.

I don't really know a lot of Aspies in real life but I'm pretty familiar with NT's and some of them, to be honest, turned out to be total as*holes. But most of 'em are pretty awesome people. Except one person, everyone I get along with are NT's. That might be because of the fact that there aren't a lot of Aspies in my school but still, I don't think NT's are "jerks". But, well, I'm not saying they're not, either.

i went to special school with kids on the spectrum for years. if you're in a place where mostly everyone has autism, you don't see much difference between the as crowd and the nt crowd. there were many jerks, bullies, loudmouths etc who were all aspies. maybe it's when you don't know any people with autism irl it seems like only nt's act a certain way, but that hasn't been my experience.

Being NT has nothing to do with personality traits. But compared to an autistic person, I feel that I'm not understood.

My wife is NT and I don't have many problems with her. Of course, that is because she signed on to deal with me for the next six decades last August. We have our spats but get along just fine. I do find NTs on campus tend to be a bit more understanding about being on the spectrum, but they can still be butt-heads. It is the town that I live in that I tend to not get along with NTs, though I try hard to understand and get along.
