Why do they insist in calling it "a disorder"? do extroverts suggest we need to be cured or something? I want my Asperger’s pride parade. Aspies of the world, unite! ;)

I'm happy just knowing I'm better at my speciality :D

I operate under the credo that every strength is also a weakness and that (almost) every weakness is also a strength, and Asperger's/introversion is a perfect example.

The 2 are very different.

Asperger's is no more of a strength than a borderline personality disorder.

Asperger's != introversion.

chromophore• 17 years ago

Exactly. Asperger's is not introversion.
