Can you give an example of what you mean, how you are treated differently from everyone else?"Read some of the posts you've aimed at others in the past. They are a perfect example. | |||

"Okay, I'm not pointing any fingers. But does anybody else experience discrimination on here? I have ADHD, possibly ASD. I've noticed that when I've posted comments or had conversations, I've been discriminated against because I'm different. How many other people who may have the same disability or difference experience the same thing? I may be different, but I'm just like everybody else. I'm approachable, friendly, but very precise. And when people ask me questions, others don't like that very much." There are plenty of tossers with the IQ of a boiled spoggys egg on this site mate, just ignore them and tell them to f%&k off  | |||

"In general terms, people disagreeing with each other and showing contempt, anger, disgust, incredulity, indifference, etc. is not discriminatory. In what way (examples might be helpful) is discrimination obvious?" Yes this is a common problem on most social media or text-only communication. Lot of people don't fully read or pause to interpret. Quirky humour or sarcasm sometimes missed too. | |||

You will realise it's the same ones every time and they are the dregs of society so don't let them effect you. Simply ignore them. | |||

" … And when people ask me questions, others don't like that very much..." I’m sorry to learn that you feel discriminated against… but as some others have already asked, it’s difficult to understand what you actually mean without some explanation or examples or evidence. The bit I’ve quoted is the bit that reads the most strange. Where were the people asking you questions..? In the Forum? Who were they? And who is the shadowy FabGuys cabal that don’t like you being asked questions…?! | |||

Maybe some don't understand or have the patience for whatever it is you do differently. I don't care about your ADHD. You're an attractive guy, but the world doesn't revolve around you. | |||

"Well ADHD does mean attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. So don't blame the guy if he has it as his brain is programmed differently as likely interprets things much more personally than others . Also impulsive behaviour ' you childish cunt'" I was diagnosed with adhd in 1997, autism in 2000 and dyslexia in 2022. I know all about the impulsive decisions and interpretations. I also know right from wrong and don't use it or pretend that my bad decisions or bad behaviour is somehow excused by slapping a label on me. | |||

"I've known someone for over 30 years who's recently been diagnosed with ADHD. He's now zonked out on meds and is a totally different person. Half his personality has gone." I've been reading a really insightful book, The Psychopath Test - A Journey Through the Madness Industry, by Ron Johnson. In essence, he looks at how psychiatry has tried to diagnose every single aspect of behaviour that might be considered as a deviation from the norm, and then attached a label to it. It's become a gold mine for the Pharma industry - you get diagnosed with a condition to explain your behaviour or mindset, and then prescribed pills for life to "normalise" you. It's a real eye-opener. | |||

"Yes people do get discriminated against on here. They get told 'No, I'm not interested in you'. One person's discrimination is another person's choice and discernment. Unfortunately too many people can't handle 'No' and they label the person who has dared to reject them as a time waster. " 100% accurate. Some seem to think having any sort of life outside of this site makes you a default timewaster. Classic example of a message chain recently - Guy - Hi Me - Hi Guy - you free? Me - got a few things on, message me after 1 ........ 1pm Guy - its 1 now, you free. I need to drop a load Me - sorry bud, still in work and out tonight! Guy - fuck sake, fucking timewasting little slut. Shouldn't promise what you can't do! Me - blocked..... | |||

" Sara, I do sometimes wonder if some people's personalities are being labeled. Some people need help through medical intervention, and it's great they get that help, but for many others, and I'll include myself here, 'It's they the way we are' " Yes, that was what the author concluded, too. Just the natural differences between people But now they are labelled with a medication pathway attached. | |||

" … How do people on here know you have ADHD, possibly ASD? Maybe if you have a verification where it says you stopped fucking to run outside and chase a squirrel..." It’s when they stop fucking a squirrel to rush outside to chase a verification that you know they definitely have ADHD, ASD, AuDHD - and probably rabies. | |||

"We are all different. We all have abilities and disabilities. It's about treating others with kindness, even if we disagree with them or don't like them or an opinion. If we know that someone is differently abled we should take that into consideration when communicating with them. " Righto… Well, those are lovely words and very fine too in theory. But as much of the thread above discusses… it’s the issue of not being aware someone might be differently abled… How do you take into consideration something you don’t know…?! | |||

"I think the biggest discrination on fab is ageism...if you,re over 60 it,s the scrap heap for you my friend...because we can,t raise a laugh never mind a stiffy...." I can still get it up ( check my verifications) and I definitely don't feel like I'm on the scrapheap. | |||

"Okay, I'm not pointing any fingers. But does anybody else experience discrimination on here? I have ADHD, possibly ASD. I've noticed that when I've posted comments or had conversations, I've been discriminated against because I'm different. How many other people who may have the same disability or difference experience the same thing? I may be different, but I'm just like everybody else. I'm approachable, friendly, but very precise. And when people ask me questions, others don't like that very much. How do people on here know you have ADHD, possibly ASD?" ...could also be HUA...? | |||

"We are all different. We all have abilities and disabilities. It's about treating others with kindness, even if we disagree with them or don't like them or an opinion. If we know that someone is differently abled we should take that into consideration when communicating with them. " . Beautifully said. Your words capture the essence of empathy and understanding. Recognising and respecting individual differences, while treating everyone with kindness and consideration, is truly fundamental. By doing so, we can create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all, regardless of their abilities or challenges. Thank you for sharing this thoughtful perspective. | |||
