I' pretty sure I'm autistic to some degree.... and this may or may not be related....
anyway.... when we were doing about the holocasut in school.... there was lots of pictures of mounds of corpses etc... and while everyone else though `Oh the horror etc` I wasn't even slightly affected.
Who else doesn't really care about pictures like this?

[I'm not saying that the holocaust didn't happen, or wasn't very, very bad.... I'm just saying my opinion!]

I have quite the obsession with morbid pictures and the sight of death. I think it's natural.

Doesnt really even bug me, to the point i really wouldn't even notice them. Now if blood/gore gets overdone, then it bugs me.

I think he's talking about a real human corpse.

No problem, it's dead meat, and I speak as someone who sat through an autopsy as a bet and actually enjoyed it.

It produces no special reaction in me. Indeed, I always find the unexpected way that bodies bounce in Holocaust videos to be somewhat amusing. If there's entrails everywhere though I do feel...something. I think it's more the uncleanliness, though, as it isn't restricted to human corpses.

I used to be severely sickened, but now I barely notice.

I think to myself upon seeing a corpse/picture of a corpse, "that should bother me"
But ration kicks in telling me it would do no good, so i don't choose to act out that emotion, and it doesn't bother me.

I have to choose to feel something when i see it... (some may say i have to pretend to feel it, but I don't see it as such)

So the short answer is... essentially nothing...unless i see blood gushing out, for some reason that has a base biological effect on me, and i'll thank you to help me stand back up after fainting when you're done bandaging the person... If they're still alive that is.

The other thing that can bother me from death, is nothing to do with the death itself, but injustice rings a strong tune with me. hrm... it's like.. about the same as being forced to look someone in the eyes if you know what i mean.

I remember my first classes in the dissection room. When it ended, me and my friend went out and we yelled GIVE US SOME FOOD! We were as hungry as hell.
Other memoir: OMG! I broke this brain!

To me there is no difference from a picture of a bloody car accident or a pretty sunset. I know a lot of NTs that are like that too.

The body itself doesn't usually scare me or provoke much response, but I always try to think of who it used to be and how they lived/died. That can be quite upsetting.

I behave pretty normal in this one: I get disturbed and sometimes cant look. I wonder if other primates experience the same. I believe that its a evolutionary precaution to prevent us from cutting and tearing each other without a reason.
