Me, I'm ENTP, and one of my sons is ENTP, too. The "E" parts helps a bit with socializing and making friends, but other than that we're autistic just the same. We can become bossy and take the lead if needed, but most of the time we're quite laid back. I do think ENTP is one of the worst type to listen to other people's woes. We don't get the feelings and just want to run away and have some fun. Often we give some quick smart advice and hope people would stop whining. It never worked somehow. :) Sadness is tough for fun-loving people. I think I lost my ENTP quality for a while during depression, but have regained it later. I do think it's possible for aspies to have every personality type. The aspies in my family are: INTJ, ENTP, INTP and ISFP.

As I know its INTJ, which is me. But someone posted on another thread about some '-T'. Don't know what that means.

But I don't talk about any disorder, defect, neurological difference. Autism is a lived experience, mostly the experience of being othered and then persecuted.

But I am not even going to call it Autism, or in any way support the advocacy for Autism / Aspergers /ASD / Neurological Difference.

Instead I talk about Shamanic Experience.

Autism-Aspergers is just a concept invented to legitimate the abuse of children and adults. Neuro-Diversity is just a way of pleading for pity. Everytime we endorse these concepts, we are further maginalizing ourselves, and encouraging child abuse. Autism-Asperger's could never even exist without Nazi Social Darwinism and Eugenics. So I no longer talk about these, I talk about lived experience, often the experience of being othered and then persecuted. I call this experience of having intelligence, insight, intuition, and mystical abilities, the Shamanic Experience. And those of us who live it need to start banding together and protecting ourselves, each other, and the children of today. Beautiful Planet, just a rotten economic and political system.
