may I introduce (russian) ashkenazi jewish simon petrikov or would this be a bad time
When people look at Sheldon as a character, they always judge him as a neurotypical person when hes a mentally ill autistic boy who emotionally suppresses himself which only worsens his symptoms. So many Sheldon haters hate him because he is autistic not because he’s an asshole but they’ll never admit that.
I've seen a few people commenting about Sheldon Cooper's behaviour at his dad's funeral during the season finale of 'Young Sheldon', and I wanted to share my thoughts as an autistic person.
I thought it was incredibly realistic.
Grief is difficult for everyone, and everyone grieves in their own ways, and autistic people are no different.
But I found myself grieving in the same way that Sheldon did when a loved one died. Emotions are really difficult, and it feels like there are a lot of social rules that come along with grief and with funerals that I just didn't understand. It was my first experience losing a loved one, and I felt so overwhelmed and numb to the world.
Sheldon not expressing emotions outwardly at his dad's funeral doesn't make him heartless or a bad person. He's just dealing with it in the way that he knows how to. Judging another person's grief is really unfair, and labelling him as a bad person or a "bad son" for not saying goodbye to his dad is horrid.
Everyone is entitled to grieve in the way they grieve, even if that looks different to you.
Sheldon Cooper is autistic. And a lot of autistic people really resonate with his characterisation. And that's really important.
I've said it before but Sheldon, as a character, isn't overly terrible as autism representation. I resonate with a lot of his characteristics, and a lot of other autistic people do too. But the way he is treated by people in his life, and by the script writers and audience of the show is terrible. And if you hate him for his autistic traits then you're just being ableist.
Do you ever make references to people that don’t exist? I have to fight the urge to reference Zippy The Christmas Chimp every day…
