autism/aspergers doesnt automatically make you intelligent, you yourself make you intelligent, there is some genetic showing of IQ but much of it is how you handle situations due to environment. CWJ is a prime example of something, i dont know what. if we stopped talking about him he may just disappear cease to exist as a joke, and stereotype of autistic people, autism has probably existed for as long as we have history, people than where just called eccentric or other terms. theyre just people. My aunt has autism, the extreme side with some other mental issues combined the main issue is they cant understand someone elses reasoning or feelings towards something, which is actually the main way of diagnosing it, my other aunt is a psychologist who specialized in autism.
The illness has probably been around under other names forever, people just looked the other way when someone wouldnt socialize or they would adapt in some way to look 'normal'

I "used" to be one as a child.
And I'm still ashamed of myself.(then again it's part fault of the bitch of theacher who made me sit in front of a wall during almost 2 years and made me become unsociable, which I just recently stopped being).
you cant 'used' to be one. thats the one sign that you never were one.

IQ is determined by culture, education and the number of IQ-tests one have done.
Genes only determine the basic structure of the brain which doesn't really effect intelligence. Intelligence can only be learned, it's not an inherent skill.

Twin studies say otherwise. In the developed world (not Hungary) adult IQ is roughly as heritable as adult height.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ
Interestingly, the heritability of IQ seems to increase as one gets older. For young children, environment is slightly more important than genetics, but for adults, genetics is by far the most important factor in determining IQ.
Kaufman's study on IQ correlations is particularly striking.
Same person (tested twice) .95
Identical twins—Reared together .86
Identical twins—Reared apart .76
Fraternal twins—Reared together .55
Fraternal twins—Reared apart .35
Biological siblings—Reared together .47
Biological siblings—Reared apart .24
Unrelated children—Reared together .30
Parent-child—Living together .42
Parent-child—Living apart .22
Adoptive parent–child—Living together .19But feel free to dismiss this if it contradicts your political beliefs.

This is the only criteria that doesn't fit in with me though.

What the hell is a "finely tuned nervous system" and how do you achieve/protect it?

implying autistic people breed and pass on their genes.
Seriously? Mutations happen, not all of them survive. Just as an Albino may survive in Scandinavia that doesn't mean he'll survive in Africa.
In the same manner a nerd may be able to get all sorts of pussy in Asia, but in the US he just gets shoved in a locker.
Autism exists mainly in cultures with birth rates below replacement value anyway. So good luck making a species out of a subject that even if he does breed lives in an area with bad fertility.

That's why most of the people in the US are stupid.

Stupid people also breed faster then smart people. Stupid people fuck from childhood, professional people rarely have time for one kid let alone 2 or 3.

Trust me, it's not something you want. Between the anxiety attacks and sleeping difficulties from seemingly normal challenges of life, it's just a huge inconvenience. I don't think there's any benefit to it apart from you tend to be more "motivated" to respond to situations seriously.

Fuck you. And perhaps. But those things are pretty specific, especially some of them. Apparently 20% of humans are HSP, so it's not too uncommon. It's not a disorder though, it's a trait.

I guess if finely tuned means fucked up then you're right.
Also, all of the points listed there are pretty common and there's no criteria for from how much is someone HSP and how long do they need to have them.

It's common because, like I pointed out 20% of people have them.
As to how long they have to have them, it's for life (not some phase you had when you were a wee kid)Posted 4 years ago # -

Then I should say that our Shitposting Scumbag is right(btw he was right on the heritability of intelligence to a greater extent than me and pleas never invoke "political views" on me)
