Other Aspies Bully Me more than Regular kids
Aspie B
does something similar that Aspie A does
which is something Aspie A remembers being made fun of for from an NT
being brought back to that bad memory,
Aspie A then takes that NT's point of view
and then makes fun of Aspie B.
An example, there is an aspie (Aspie A) who does not know he is one, does not know what Aspergers is, but knows that he somehow does things alot differently than everyone else and then has to try really hard to be more like everyone else, but does not always succeed. So he is made fun of by NTs, people tell him he is (insert bad things here), but he tries to ignore all of it and move on, but with it all still bothering him. Then one day, he sees another Aspie (Aspie B) and with out directly realizing it or not he notices similarities, and then makes fun of him because that is the only response he knows to that kind of behavior or because of what has built up.
As I am an adult, I am relating my answer to this poll based on my childhood. I wasn't bullied too much because I was tall for my age and my father taught in the school system I attended. But things did happen. One student on purposely dented up my trombone in band. Another tried to set me on the water fountain. And I was on the bowling team, and one of the team members always stole my French fries when we ate at the fast food restaurant after bowling and then proceeded to burp loudly as he ate them. And there were other things in the past too like being kicked, etc. These students were more than likely NT in my opinion. The students that were more awkward were nice to me and did not show signs of bullying me. So---my vote is that it was NTs that bullied me.

I doubt they were Aspies but I hung around some geeky art-student types in high school and college and they were pretty bad towards me. They were also rather hypocritical. They get really offended when I say something condescending towards them but they do the same thing to me without giving it a second thought. They make fun of me for taking things seriously and one guy even laughed when I told him how offended I was when he humiliated me infront of some other kids. In somewhat of an aspie-ish matter they see their behavior towards others as nothing but get extremly offended if you were to insult them in anyway. They keep saying I deserve the behavior I get but they deserve the bad behavior they get as well and as liberal as they are they're too ignorant to see that.
Then again, they were guys and I'm a girl. They were gonna treat me like crap no matter what cuz I won't sleep with any of them.
