Are we Otroverts?

Theres an article in todays Guardian about this newly recognosed personality type, it describes people who feel like they don't belong, wish for emotional independence and have lots of original idea?

If you are then you'd be in the company of the likes of Freida Khaloe and Albert Einstein, but then who wouldn't want to be up there with those great minds?

Do you think this describes many autistic people?

Could this be a way of normalising ND, by adding another personality type rather than Jung's intorverts and extroverts?

  • I don’t really see the point in it but I honestly would rather it take attention away from autism and other neurodivergences. Every single story or person who feels out of place all of a sudden gets labeled as autistic even when there are no communication differences or RRBs, even when they aren’t disabled in any way.
