I'd argue assholes would merit the same attention as the people on the spectrum, but it might be another discussion. > something they choose to do Point taken, but then switching that for "weird" doesn't feel like helping, it's still a pejorative and not really focused description. > people actually suffering the disorder An issue I'd take with that is the effect to which it's penalizing depends a lot on the environment and what the person is trying to do. Would two people with the same condition, but one suffering and the other not, need to be identified in two different ways ?
