** When it comes to stories about people who took a while to realize they are asexual and/or aromantic, a recurring major factor is getting the idea that sexual and/or romantic attraction are social constructs maintained via an AbileneParadox in which they are expected to participate themselves. As for a concrete example of what an asexual person might assume to be everyone's experience due to it being their own, look no further than NotDistractedByTheSexy IgnoreTheFanservice applying regardless of the gender and/or conventional attractiveness of the person providing the fanservice.

* People with undiagnosed dyslexia sometimes assume that everyone experiences the classic "letters bouncing around" thing they're seeing and dyslexia just means they bounce around more, and are surprised to find out that most people don't see it at all.

** Until the middle of ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheChamberOfSecrets'' (when he does it in front of an audience for the first time), Harry assumes that all or most wizards can [[SssssnakeTalk talk to snakes]] -- in fact, he doesn't even realize he's speaking a different language when he does. In the sixth book, it takes him some time (and prompting by Dumbledore) to understand that Morfin Gaunt is speaking [[SssssnakeTalk Parseltongue]] in the PensieveFlashback, as he only hears it as perfect English.

(To be fair to Harry, he first experiences it before he knows he's a wizard, when his magical powers first manifest, causing uncontrollable magic surges. In the same time period, he teleported a short distance, made a pane of glass disappear, and caused a suit of clothes to shrink. Having not grown up in a wizarding household, he mentally classes talking to a snake as just one more magical thing he did, and no more worthy of comment than the other feats, which any wizard or witch ''would'' regard as trivial.) In the sixth book, it takes him some time (and prompting by Dumbledore) to understand that Morfin Gaunt is speaking [[SssssnakeTalk Parseltongue]] in the PensieveFlashback, as he only hears it as perfect English.
