THanks, Alan! Welcome to the forum. You are one of a few members now joining us from Singapore. I hope you learn many things about us Aspies & join in discussing things with us here.

I was thinking maybe people with Aspergers would be nicer?..I don't know. I don't interact at all in real life no friends etc. and rarely come online to chats and recently got into trouble in Facebook Singapore Bronies Society so I found this site by accident because of that I stumbled on a fellow Singaporean's blog from this site about how they were prejudice against people with Aspergers.

I first learned about bronies here on this forum since several members here are bronies. Before that, I had no clue that they even existed! Another member here encountered some hostility from other members on some kind of brony forum but I have no idea which country it was in. I don't know if Aspies are nicer than others but this particular forum seems to have an almost magical ability to attract a wide variety of really great people from all over the world. The age range varies enormously & some members are deeply religious & others (like me) are Atheists & we all tend to get along very well.

Prejudices & humans is a very long story; whether it's Aspies, people from a different religion, people who are fat, black, white, Asian, too rich, too poor...you name it & somewhere there's an idiot nursing a heap of hatred against it. Sometimes a prejudiced person can learn the errors of his ways & become more accepting of differences. Education & accurate knowledge about 'others' as well as some contact with them can help. Aside from that, there are those who just don't want to get along. Being bigoted makes them feel powerful & superior. This latter type tends to try to recruit others to share his prejudices & even sometimes harm members of whatever group they're against. People like this are best simply avoided.

hello Alan, Singaporean here also. I am also the head of a Singaporean learning differences group/forum.

I also have heard of the SBS and its misdeeds.

Alan, you are so right

I am the author of the said blog entry. What I wrote did happen to me.

I think people with Asperger's - many of us, indeed, most of us, are nice people. We really look at the strengths of different people, and to form a community full of people who contribute to society. I do think you might have the strengths to contribute to Aspies Central and other helpful Aspie groups.

I look forward to see you on this forum - and other supportive places for Singaporeans and/or Bronies.
