I am curious as to weather Aspies who are Kinesthetic and visual thinkers are more adaptive and able to intigrate more easily into NT cultur than Literal and verbal thinkers.

I was reflecting on thiis the other day when thinking of the many aspie actors, artists, philosophers, and muscians on the spectrum, many of whom seem to have no right brain dysfunction.

I would be most keen to enter into diolouge wiith Kinesthetic/ visual thinkers particularly.

Go well

Chris

How would you define a kinesthetic thinker? I know kinesthetic refers to movement. Do you mean people who learn best by doing? I think I do. But is there more to it than that?

Hi Aimless

After reading all of Donna Williams autobiographies, and hearing what she means by Kinesthetic, I understand it to be learning by doing and a deeper appreciation of oneself in movement and space...............I am facinated that many aspies who have a right brain / left brain balance, seem to intergrate more into mainstrem culture that the conventional aspie. (not that I personally have any desire to do so myself)
