Talk:Asuka Langley Soryu

all of it, but this especially

quote:

I believe that I must agree that Asuka is indeed a very proud individual by nature; for she has to be since, because of lack of loving parents, she needs someone to be proud of her as a parent would, so she is proud of HERSELF. Also, I believe this personality was meant to conflict with Shinji's, since he lost his mother at a young age while Asuka (in mentality) acts like a mother. Note her always saying things like "don't be stupid" or other somewhat motherly things (I will say don't be stupid isn't exactly motherly, but it does relate to 'dont do anything you'll regret later', which is often told to small children.) She is also quite cruel to Rei, since Rei never had a mother (in theory) and therefore rejects that idea. Asuka is cruel to Rei because if Asuka "Is a mother-figure" and Rei rejects a non-existent mother, then Rei is like a defiant child and so Asuka must be quick to repiemand, therefore the cruelty. You may take my theories a number of ways, but I believe there are limits to the ways you can take them... --KidManga, 8:33 PM (EST), April 28, 2006

Is it true, or just an urban legend that Windows NT (tm) has been named after "neurotypical" because the majority of the programmers at Microsoft are in fact autists (above all Bill Gates)and wanted to make fun of their normal "neurotypical" customers? 79.193.114.134 (talk) 14:53, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

love-shyness:

Wikipedia posted:

Love-shyness is a specific type of severe chronic shyness that impairs or prevents intimate relationships.[1][2] According to this definition, love-shy people find it difficult if not impossible to be assertive in informal situations involving potential romantic or sexual partners. For example, a heterosexual love-shy man will have trouble initiating conversations with women because of strong feelings of social anxiety.

naturally, the article is larger than it has any right to be

and the talk page

quote:

"C-sections"

"A number of the men also had a difficult time being birthed and sometimes needed a c-section to be performed."

I find this very interesting, given the links between autism in general and the intestinal flora, the links between the effects of the intestinal flora on the brain, and the fact that a huge consequence of a c-section on a baby is that it is not exposed to the normal vaginal flora. If the baby is also not breast-fed, then he won't have a normal intestinal flora. I would not be surprised if love-shyness were highly a matter of microbes (and the subsequent impaired digestion/brain development/immune system). -Unsigned

and it has an archived talk page the size of which you don't normally see outside of the anime articles

quote:

I love this article! Well Done. However I believe that Love Shy People may be split into various groups, the sociopathic (lacking self confidence), the religiously inclined (those who can do nothing that offends their faith), the physically handycapped (ie. overwight, disfigured, mamed etc.) and those who have physiological or hormonal problems (such as high/low testosterone, or low/high adrenalin, hyperclycemia etc). Women may also suffer this disorder and should not realy be limited to men alone. Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.82.254 (talk contribs)

quote:

Is it possible to have love shyness, social anxiety, autism, and shyness (in general), because I believe I have those disorders, I often feel lonely, depressed and have strong romantic sexual desires which cannot be fulfilled adequately, but are fulfilled (usually by porn lol), i have a hard time talking to others.. and my speech is rather lacking, my physical appearance is unjust, i don't have a job, i have no confidence or social skills.. but i'm a nice and loving person, I don't care for money or personal gain.. I would love to help others and I would love to have my own family with a women who is just awesome.. lol keep dreaming i guess 75.26.36.162 06:20, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Short answer: yes. Wikipedia isn't really a place to discuss the personal side of this stuff, but if you are interested, you might check out the blog I recently joined. Love-shyness is something I will be talking about there. --SecondSight 08:52, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

During my wanderings on the internet, I stumbled onto websites about social skills and dating. I read those websites incessantly. After much reading and practice, I recovered from shyness and women started paying attention to me. During this process, I read Why Men Are The Way They Are by Warren Farrell. I came to believe that feminism had exacerbated my social difficulties and caused me unnecessary shame about my sexuality. I would have made such a perfect pro-feminist man, too. Oh well.
