I really hope the upvotes are from people who chuckled, and not sympathy for an oppressed minority (in any case I'm like a 26 on the Baron-Cohen quiz).

I upvoted due to chuckling, because it contains a nugget of truth.

I don't believe that neurotypicals are oppressed here, but I can certainly see that NTs would feel marginalised in the same way that auts can feel marginalised in normal social scenes.

I probably go below 26 on the baron-cohen test sometimes (I normally lie at 31, but recent bout of depression has had me at ~38) but if so, I've never taken it at such a time (well, I wouldn't expect to, I'd be too busy socialising)
