Generally if someone is truely anti social they have some anxiety and are sensitive to it, so yes. Something is mean if it hurts someones feelings. Sometimes when we don't think that something is mean someone else really does. You have to be careful and think about the other person before speaking.
In general its not a good idea to call people names other than their given name.

It means the person is unsocialized or chooses not to socialize...Either way it`s not good. Look up or Google Anti social personalities.

Yeah, it's a put down. And if the person really is anti-social, it would probably make them even more self-conscious and wary around others.

Yes. Especially if it's true, when you tell someone they are anti-social, you KNOW you are saying it to hurt their feelings, make them mad or erroneously want to "make them understand they should be more social". Whatever the reason, it's mean. They are who they are. You have no right to judge them.

Yes, it's mean. It's an unkind label - and a pretty meaningless one at that.
If you feel you need to say something to this person, either for their own good or because they are hurting others, then it's much better to be specific and explain to them exactly what the problem with their behaviour is.

For me sometimes I'm being an anti social and because I'm feeling shy to communicated with the other people let say my cousins,my aunts and my uncles and they having a party or having a shopping or watching movies and I'll told my mom that I can't accompanied with her because of being socialized with my relatives and then she was convinced me to joined it with them and when we will attended this occassions and nobody to entertained with me and I'll felt sad and boring and I'll tried to joined with the group of my cousins and I'll tried to be enjoyed with them and I'll felt this is my regrets to joined and to accompanied with my mom to attended with this party and someday I'll be an overcome of my shyness and to socialized and to communicated with the other people

Not necessarily. It depends how they say it. If they say it and walk away, then I would assume its an insult. if they say it and offer advice then I think that they are just trying to help you through life. And if it was the first option talk to the person before writing it off as an insult.

Yes it is mean. It is rude and unnecessary. It will not help things any, even if you are right. No name calling, not even as adults!!

I would say so, yes. What would be the point? Sometimes people are shy or seem like they don't want to communicate, but you don't see them in every situation, so you really can't judge. It doesn't really help.
