Hyde always stresses that it is after us to develope our "unique potential." In my book, that's a little like Nixon claiming he was only after "Peace" in Vietnam (as opposed to tin and tungsten). Unique potential, yah, but only if it falls in the skinny range accepted by Hyde.
I was always extremely shy, kind of a loner. There's a place in a healthy society for people like me, and it's not a bad place; it's just a different place than the majority of people.
At Hyde these characteristics were branded as antisocial and selfish, even narcissistic, if I remember one person correctly. It didn't help that I liked to excel at academics. That really branded me as a total loser. It really felt as though they considered aptitude as being antithetical to attitude.
There is something wrong with an "educational system" that ostracizes so many. I am sure that there are many other people who were told for equally spurious reasons that they were not "Hyde material."
