      So you’re telling me neurotypical/non-autistic people are incapable of making comparisons without attaching a judgment value to them?

      Like, if you had two daughters who took the same math test, you would be unable to compare how they did without finding fault with the one that “did worse”? You would actually end up loving that one less unless you could convince yourself of an excuse that makes the comparison “apples to oranges”?

      Wow that must suck.

        How would I know what neurotypical people do? You can hardly compare me to a neurotypical person, that’s like… The phrase escapes me.

        I am going to tear apart the insinuation that “it has faults” mean “I love it less.” My favourite D&D movie is the second one, which most people are unaware even exists. I can enjoy a flawed movie while recognising its flaws. Why would my love for my children be dependant on a maths test?

        Also, “did worse” is objective when it comes to maths tests. You get graded, and the answers are absolute.

        Think of this. One daughter gets A grades in english, but C grades in maths. The other daughter, it’s inverted. Which daughter is smarter? You can’t… Actually, you SHOULDN’T compare them. Morally.
