Right on. Everything I've read esp. Grandin, suggests strongly autism is
crucially hypersensitivity rather than an emotional disorder. If every time
the normal person touched someone, they got the equivalent of an electric
shock, they'd stay away from people too. [Thanks for your previous links
too].

neuronal processing may render the world painfully intense when the
neocortex is affected and even aversive when the amygdala is affected,
leading to social and environmental withdrawal. >
