    I’m saying NTs lean too heavily on one style and get pissy when people can’t read their mind.

    We as a species evolved to rely heavily on indirect communication. It’s natural to us to the point of subconsciousness. And it works in most of the cases.
    So I wouldn’t say NT lean too heavily on that.

    With that said, I agree, that accommodation should be needed for disabled people even though they’re a minority - as we do for handicapped, for example.

      Considering that miscommunication and misunderstanding are a common occurrence for practically everyone I would have to disagree. I’ve seen it end plenty of friendships over the years. In pretty much every case, if either party was willing to just speak clearly and directly it could have been resolved easily.

      I can only speak for the US, but it really seems like we don’t have that shared, intuitive language anymore. People are so different due to myriad of reasons to a point that it disrupts that intuitive communication. I know this is true because if I travel to a country with a more cohesive intuitive language, like India for example, it’s actually a lot easier for me to understand that indirect communication because it’s more consistent between people.
