And looking outwards is exactly what it does since it references societal neuronormativity. It’s not about the “shortcomings you have”.
- lukeify 2mo agoIf you're looking outwards merely just to look inwards again, then you're missing the point of what I'm trying to say.
- dgellow 2mo agoWhat’s your point? I also don’t get it. Neurotypicality is by definition outward, neurodivergence is defined by your relation to the overall society expectations
- spider-mario 2mo agoWhat does your point look like when you remove the presumption of shortcomings? I feel that it’s you who might have missed the point of the original post, unless you were just making an unrelated point because neurodivergence happened to be mentioned. > Neurotypical individuals often assume that their experience of the world is either the only one, or the only correct one. […] NTs are often intolerant of seemingly minor differences in others. When in groups NTs are socially and behaviorally rigid, and frequently insist upon the performance of dysfunctional, destructive, and even impossible rituals as a way of maintaining group identity.
