Ahhh

I just saw the irony in the fact Autism Speaks is supposly speaking for those that have cognitive problems and couldn't speak >=D
*I* personally would prefer to be defended by facts not luaguage.
Forgiven.

I don't like it when the word *** is used as an insult. It doesn't make sense, and it's insulting to compare *** people to an organization such as Autism Speaks.


Exactly, it is very immature and discriminatory. It annoys me when I see it used by anybody over the age of twelve.

It wouldn't acceptable to use a derogatory word for black or gay people as an insult, so why use a derogatory word for brain damaged people as an insult?

I'm sure that if somebody used 'autistic' as an insult certain people on here would be up in arms.

Sorry- just realised it's been sorted.Smile

You would Flardox. It is insulting to people with intellectual disabilities.
Prior to 1980's, kids on the spectrum were thought ***. It is a hell of a thing to carry through schooling life.
So agree to the usage and like it all you like, but it is a nasty little position to take.



rossco two very simple words for you to remember
