Meaning you shouldn't generalise when you have not met the entire demograph beforehand to make such a claim.

All you are relying on are assumptions, just as the manic-depressive author is whining about being positive over a condition whos impairments are not known.

It's a positive generalisation. I don't see the problem with that... :D

I do, though, because it then makes us dullards without any individuality of our own.

I love it when people of all cliques adhere to a common mentality.

I was generalizing of a trait many aspie seem to have... and nothing more. I'm sorry you were so insulted by that remark... :D

What you think or what someone told you think we have.

And how was I insulted by your remark? Unless it is, of course, your own assumption. :p

The author might as well be an NT trapped in an AS body.

Speaking to the author: I can understand if you are down, or depressed, since having AS brings those things fairly often. BUT, that does not give you a free ticket to come in and try to depress US just because you think A.S. pride is not worthy of existance.

The key is to look to the positive side of life, and not the negative. I guess that is hard for you, so you had to come here and take it out on all of us. Gee, thanks. :?

What the hell is wrong with you people on this community? How conceited some of you get at the mere mention of "neurotypical".

Can it just be that he/she is suffering from a lack of self-esteem? :O

I think in general we are honest people. I agree we've made at least one lie to say the very least but for the most part we are just a bit more honest than others... don't you agree? By the way generalizing is nothing wrong. My comment doesn't dull your indivuality at all... that is over-exagerating in my opinion.

???? :P

Besides, that doesn't even make any sense. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the things that make someone AS are integral to their mind, no?

:roll: I don't get the rampant dislike of NTs here, either. Maybe I'm naive, but I don't think that lashing out at everyone not like you ever solves problems, whether you happen to be part of a majority or a minority. I tend to see the similarities more than the differences, and I wish other people would do the same.

Wrong, wrong and wrong.

Your argument in regards to autistics being inherently honest is devoid of any merit because you have once again added your own inferences of every autistic's experiences. For example, your comment with us "being more honest with others" and saying "at least one lie" doesn't add up.

Autistics are capable of lying more than once, and you are just wrapped up in your own little world just because the majority assumes that all autistics are this and that and we are all hunky-dory. ^_^

No, I'm not over-exaggerating, I just think your comments in regards to autistics in general are boring, baised and unoriginative, probably mentality originally borrowed from some aspie you think so highly of before it accumulated to your own.

EDIT: I hate the term aspie. Why oh why did I use it... twice? :/

Oh! A game of who can fit the most quotes into one post! I'll play!

How would we know that aspies lie less than the general population? Could it be we're smart enough not to get caught. :wink:

I've mentioned that aspergers just like everyone else in the world lie... but in my opinion we're are honest people. Of course their is no facts/evidence of that because i'm base in it on the people I know at this website/wrong planet. Sorry is that too boring to read... :D In my opinion, their are quite a few aspies in here that are honest and speak their mind. I posted that generalization as nothing more than than to post what I think, from experience, is what aspie are. And once again they are in general honest people... more honest than nts. And I have quite a few experiences with Nts. Does that add up. Because if it doesn't than I think you're wrong in my opinion? Wrong,wrong,wrong as you say... :D
??? :P :D

Pad, I'm sorry to say I must side with peaguy on this one.

In general, AS people are not any more 'honest' than the next person. Just because we are blunt sometimes when we WANT to share our OPINIONS doesn't mean we are biologically honest people. I for one lie to my parents quite often, and feel no remorse over it. When a lie needs to be told, Aspies are probably the ideal people to do it: They don't make much eye-contact in the first place, and people won't expect them of acting suspicious if the person they are lieing to knows they have AS.

I am a terrible liar. I find it very hard to do, and can in fact only do it when I can prepare for it. Can't lie when asked an unexpected direct question.
