Each time I hear things about NTs being stupid, it actually disturbs me. I'm NT and I'm not stupid. I got an A in maths and an A+ in history, and I'm at college right now studying physics.
Sometimes WP makes NTs look like dull soulless people who can't go without socializing for 2 seconds. We are not actually like that. We also have ambitions and a lot of us want to get ourselves into a career too. My boyfriend builds computers because he really likes computers.
Well I am sorry you feel that way, because I don't personally think NT's are stupid and don't remember saying they were either. Good for you and you're goals.
As for being dull and souless I also don't think that about NT's, however I do feel like they have a stronger demand to be around people, and probably couldn't tolerate being alone as well as an AS could just by the nature of our wiring.
In terms of the careers I understand about that, but given that you are innately born with better social skills finding a career should tend to be slightly easier for someone who understands the office politics.
And just out of curiosity why did you decide to join the community you being an NT? I think that's great don't get me wrong just curious
