Do you hate NT's? I don't, but some AS kids have a high disdain for them.

Again, I have AS but I don't hate NT's. Some pick on me, but I get over it.

People are people. It's pointless to group them together and judge them based on something that factors very little in likeability.

I think you might add "plain misanthrope".

To me that's kind of like asking "do you hate people with brown hair?" or saying "all blondes are rude". Like Frakkin said, It's stupid to categorise people.

Nope, not at all. They're just different. They're special, that's all. Nuerodiversity works both ways, haha.

But, in all seriousness, no, they're generally fine. I can learn a lot of stuff from them, especially considering they're the majority of the population and only 1% or so of the population has AS. So, it'd be rather hard for me to hate 99% of everyone. I mean they have their things that annoy me, but I also annoy them, so we're even I guess. Plus I know like three other diagnosed Aspies... Well 2 I only know as longterm internet friends, so that leaves me to exactly one Aspie in real life. I mean I suspect a few people I know might have some ASD symptoms or whatever, but that's entirely subjective as I'm not a psychiatrist.

So no, I do not hate NTs, but they can be a bit...special at times. Oh well, live and let live.

No. I have never hated them though I am guilty of bashing them but I was talking of the bad ones only. Then I realized how stupid it is. I have know some great NTs in my life so I knew they weren't all bad. I thought the majority of them were. Until I realized aspies can be just as bad. For years, every time I run into a bad aspie online, I thought it was an NT trait they have but no they were just an as*hole. Some are ignorant and some are very judgmental just like anyone else. Also some can be just as stupid.

So yeah, NT hating and bashing is stupid.

Nope, I don't like to seperate myself from NTs anyway. They are humans just like me, they all have thoughts, dreams and emotions just like me. I hate some NTs but it isn't because they are NTs. It's because they have upset me or whatever, but if an Aspie delibrately upset me I would hate him or her aswell, the same. In college I was bullied by a non-NT but she wasn't an Aspie.

me, too. two of my three neices are NTs and they're the sweetest people ever. there are no words to describe them, and my sister is NT, too, so is my nephew. i've met some real nice people who suffer from this condition known as NT. (just kidding). i have more respect for the ones who love and nurture animals. i know one who took a blind feral kitten to her home and is taking care of it, even though she doesn't have a lot of money and it's not easy for her and she lives a a tiny apartment. so they have all kinds.
bullies i could smash.

I don't like the language that NT's use in research papers describing Autism, certain phrases like Defective Brains and Lack of Empathy, pisses me off.

There's a few, but then there are also a few autistic people I had just as equally.

I am no nice guy but I am not a push over either, it would be stupid of me not to hate the people who torment me. :roll:

I hate some of them, because some of them are complete dicks, but of course I don't hate all of them.

I voted " A few " though really what I hate aren't NT's as much as I hate "NT Culture and values".
