Thankyou for pointing this out.
To know whether you feel "as human as an NT", or "feel any different," surely you have to experience being NT before you can draw any comparisons and conclusions?
If you are either NT or AS, how can an aspie or someone neurotypical say they feel different from something they have never experienced?
There is no logic to this.


Do you like the usual and common things that most people do?  ...if not, It could be a noticeable difference.
You don't have to be a Horse to know that you feel different from a Horse? ..am i wrong?
I feel very different from very social people. I don't understand their urge to be with other people as much as possible. Do I have to be hyperscosial  first to be able to feel different?


No I don't like the usual common things that most people do. Nor am I "hypersocial". I am quite the opposite, and I am NT. What does this say about me? It doesn't give me any ability to make a judgement as to whether I feel any 'more human' than someone I have no experience of being.
Concerning the question, "Do you feel as human as an NT". We are talking about comparing human to human. As Noetic said, "I wouldn't know what it's like to feel like anything or anyone other than myself".  To state: "You don't have to be a Horse to know that you feel different from a Horse?" maybe true, but is an irrevelant analogy.
Neigh, I think you are wrong.
