I understand your perspective, despite not having classic autism myself. I never really liked the Asperger's term at all, and I just refer to my diagnosis as "high-functioning autism," as I technically was diagnosed after Asperger's was removed from the DSM. The term "aspie" personally irks me, but I say that people should be free to use whatever term they want. Just don't expect other people to always refer to each autistic person by their own preferred terms unless it is something that has been discussed before. I think the community, myself included, could do a better job with trying not to get offended with the whole "politically correct" and "politically incorrect" words surrounding ASD. Everyone has their own preferences, and it may turn people away from the disabled community as a whole if they are uncertain whether they are using the correct words/terms or not. I do think there should be more awareness and resources available to those with classic autism on this website, though.
