AS and Misanthropy

Post Reply New Topic

I was airing a view and telling you to grow up. Your clearly raged so your coming back at me with insults. Very Childish for someone who likes to act like a "Man".

NT's on the internet are always ripping on some Aspies for there anti-humanity thoughts, don't put your head in the sand.

i am allegic to the word childish...it is ageism.
Childlike would be a better word. And ther is nothing wrong wiht being like a child

Only if your a child IMO

If I had a good job and a nice salary I don't know if I could feel misanthropic unless I was treated like crap at work, being the lowest on the totem pole and the like. Then I would start to resent because I guess I am too much of a narcissist to accept being looked upon as a "bottom feeder" with grace. I would demand more. In fact, I wouldn't be happy unless everyone was praising me all the time, calling my ideas brilliant, telling me they like what I am wearing and look "beautiful" today just so I could do this little song and dance with them where I contradict them saying something like this:

"Oh, I'm not that beautiful."

"Oh yes you are!"

"Am NOT!"

"Are SO!"

I guess that's my NTness showing.

Even though I could consider myself damaged, in some ways, I don't consider myself a Misanthrope. How can you be a sensitive or vulnerable person and not become damaged in some ways along the way. Not liking what people do many times doesn't also have to equal a general hatred of the human race. I have always tended to see the good rather than the bad in people, which has also gotten me into a lot of trouble trusting those I sometimes shouldn't have. I have learned the hard way that people aren't basically the same as myself. They lie for no reason, take advantage of, rob, etc., etc... I still don't hate people but I am now more wary and guarded and don't take anything for granted in terms of what they may be capable of.

Okay, this little kid on here just reminded me of something else.

I freakin' HATE teenagers! Much of what I said earlier was of adults -but the obviously youthful attitude of the "grow up" boy has reminded me of worse social dependence enacted by NT teenage kids - largely due to undeveloped brains that, if you'll cast your minds to your later childhood, may recall a lack of awareness to greater detail. Or if you cannot; merely observe the social actions of the young. Teenage kids provide a more honest, though not by intent, look at societies.
I suppose that's why I hate teenagers! As a society is fallible; the worst traits are reflected in children!

well, I suppose childlish, to difference it from childlike, would mean: immature.

I guess you could say I have rock starlike ambitions and desires but cannot handle rock star level stress.

you would be surprised to know how many adult looking are still children inside. Most of us are taught to grow up and by this they 'kill' the child within.

An adult is a person who has only kept the negative aspects of a child

ever heard: don't be so adultish?

Grow up, Ishmael. Sooner or later you'll be squeezed out of your comfort zone and engaged by the world if the world will not be engaged by you. It is as invetiable as your next trip to the bathroom.

another Aspie using NT language'???

That's right.

Do we all speak the same NT language:(

I speak English.

with an NT twang to it
