NT people and Aspies are both totally equal. A part of our brain might not work (this is my theory), but the way it reroutes itself makes us able to see things that NTs would have a really hard time seeing. In the same way, NTs see things in a light that would be very difficult for us to see.
Since we spend our whole lives using our brains like this, which is totally different from the way NTs use their brains, our brains become fine-tuned and we become amazingly good at seeing things in our different light, the black-and-white technical light (or however you want to put it).
But since the NTs seem to have been here first, the world is all set up their way. (Lacking social skills, we still have to navigate this confusing maze of the NT World to find our niche). Sucks for us, since they're in charge, too.
Sucks even more that they mostly feel "superior" and call us "disabled".
We really all need to work together. When will they all see that? Maybe when our population begins to level with and then exceed theirs..
