Having several friends with Aspbergers’-like behaviors, I really don’t give a crap what the DSM-V says. People with these characteristics experience the world differently from the majority of others, and targeting their vulnerabilities is just as cowardly when it’s done to them as when it’s done to you.

Those of us who are strong have a responsibility to to protect and uplift those who are weak, not victimize them further.

You are a reprehensible person.

You don’t know or understand me or my motives. I grew up with those “symptoms” and the idiot shrinks thought I had all kinds of developmental disabilities, fortunately for me while still a teen I went in the Army my drill instructor and others “tormented” me every day and mocked me, so I rapidly learned to fight, pull my head out of my a**, be more assertive, and more extroverted, and very rapidly become a very different, well adjusted person and have a wonderful life. Friends, with the same symptoms, who were not so fortunate, who instead went to shrinks are still living in their fragile make-believe private hells. Those of us who are strong have the responsibility to make weak men strong; I agree we have the responsibility to protect women and children.
