In the scientific discourse of autistic emotionality, a deficit perspective of autism is central. The general affective deficit discourse relies on normative discursive notions of &quot;humanity&quot; or &quot;human emotionality.&quot; Thus, neurotypicals are produced as real &quot;humans&quot; and neurotypical emotionality as &quot;normal&quot; human emotionality. This human normativity is challenged in the Swedish autobiographical texts by Gunilla Gerland (b. 1963), Iris Johansson (b. 1945) and Immanuel Brändemo (b. 1980). Along with American authors of autobiographies about autism, such as Temple Grandin&#039;s Thinking in Pictures (1995) and Dawn Prince-Hughes&#039; Songs of the Gorilla Nation (2004) they destabilize the categories of &quot;human&quot; and &quot;animal&quot; by identifying with nonhuman animals, describing themselves as such, or feeling disqualified as real humans.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26095847</style></notes><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26095847?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
