Well we can both type out narcissist, but not the r word and that says enough on its own. I don't think people are referring to NPD or even psychiatry in general when they say narcissist though I see what you mean. I dunno what word could replace it though... braggart? Egoist? Uh... Selfist?

Actually I'd prefer if non narcissists didn't type it out when speaking outside a medical context. I'm allowed to say it because I'm a narcissist and I have a full understanding of the issues and aren't oppressing myself by using it. But a neurotypical cannot have the lived experience of ableist discrimination against pwNPD, and so I'd prefer they use the term pwNPD. It has fewer letters too. When I see a neurotypical calling us narcissists, it feels like when a neurotypical calls me an autist.
