Do non Autistics intuitively "know" how to act and communicate?

NAS39246

I read on this website that "Other people appear to know, intuitively, how to communicate and interact with each other, but Autistics do not", but believe this statement to be completely untrue in so many ways.

I do not believe that there is any one way to interact and communicate and nor do i believe anyone, even non autistic could possibly be thought of as someone that "knows" how to act and communicate in every given situation.

I believe making wrong statements like this just causes confusion.

Would do you think?

Do you think there are people out there that just intuitively "know" how to act and communicate? In that case, what happens when they come across someone that has more experience and is more intelligent than them?

  • Totally agree with you my love, think we used to be better communicators but discourse now seems to be basic imo, even brutal and ugly. Education is being dumbed down, the most important think of all which is critical/analytical thinking is deliberately discouraged now.
