I'm BPD and I'm NT because I'm not AS. Anyone who isn't an AS = NT
He who knows, does not speak. He who speaks, does not know.

There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.

Tis a common misconception, just cause you aren't ASD don't make you NT. Like I said having Dyslexia makes one NT, BPD makes don't make one NT because BPD in it's own name has "disorder" in it. Some people say "Asperger's Disorder". The same should apply to all Personality Disorders.

Stating facts not in evidence.

There is no definition of NT other then yours that says only people without disorders are NT. It originated as a repartee from the autism community to protest the fact that they where called 'disorder'. It meant to say that labeling people with 'disorder' was wrong so they made up their own disorder: NeuroTypical.
It is not a real word in the sense that it is a medical qualification.
