    Why is normal behavior seen as normal by people with autism?

    And the only reason that neurotypical people’s behavior is seen as normal is because there are more neurotypicals than there are autistics. So next time you are thinking about a typical autistic behavior being weird, unacceptable, or pathological, remember that neurotypicals probably do a version of that same exact behavior.

    Are neurotypical people just as bad at understanding autism as autistic people?

    Neurotypical people are just as bad, if not worse, at understanding what helps us. Autistic people’s experience of shutdowns/meltdowns does not equal “challenging behavior” or negative/spiteful intent to others. Often it is stress from sensory overload and/or anxiety or frustration

    Do autistic people have different body language/tone of voice from neurotypicals?

    Autistic people’s body language/tone of voice does not equal neurotypical implicit intent or implications or emotion (read from a neurotypical perspective). Facial expressions aren’t even emotions in neurotypical people, but social intent. We just don’t express feelings in the same way sometimes.

    What is it like to be a neurotypical?

    The Neurotypicals come across to Autistic people with the sensory hyposensitivity. From our perspective, Neurotypical behavior is so strange sometimes that it becomes hard to understand. And so Neurotypicality is not only seen in relation but is very much persuaded by our thinking or Autistic thinking.
