Would NTs be bullied? Would they enjoy much privilege in such a universe?

I honestly don't know.

It'd be better if AS and NT was at an equilibrium, rather than one being larger than the other.

yes, they'd be bullied. aspies sometimes bully each other and they even bully NTs when they get the chance. just because aspies might get bullied more often doesn't mean that they are incapable of being bullies in their own right.

EDIT: hint: check out the site. there be subtle bullying all around!! !

Shame that I'm not all that musically inclined, I would take the song "If I Were A Boy" by Beyonce and change it to "If I Were NT". It just wouldn't sound right in my Beary White voice.

I think Aspies are just as human as NTs and just as capable of bullying others. Likely enough, even if Aspies were the majority of the population, we'd still have social problems that came from some jerkwad picking on a convenient target.

Klingon would be the universal language
Steam engine locomotives would be the "only" form of transport, except the odd bus or two
All communication would either be talking past one another or arguing over the fine details of how fine the details actually are
Half the population would be working at night; the other half wouldn't be at all
There'd be no laws in one street, and the other street would be a law itself
There'd be bullying, but no one would actually know if it was bullying or not
Half the population would live in university dorms; the other half on the streets
{insert the rest here}

Good times, man, good times.
