And it is not fair to say that just because you want to be lonely and miserable that everyone else not only should suffer with you, but is genetically programmed too. There are plenty of successful aspie relationships out there. They waited for the right person and the right time and work hard to make it work. They enjoy their life. It is perfectly possible to enjoy your life and say that you simply do not feel that you want to be in a relationship. But that does not mean no one else can be. Everyone gets to make their own choice.

^ See now that would be an example of a female making a derogatory blanket statement about men. And, femme, as we have been discussing at some length in this thread, that is unacceptable behavior.

member was already spoken to, but has not yet picked up the PM. sexist statements against men are treated the same way as sexist statements against women, contrary to popular belief on WP.

yeah Lonermutant

How dare you hurt peoples feelings with your sweeping anthropological statements regarding the natural viability of aspie breeding

The state works very hard to provide aspies with an environment conducive to the sordid propagation of the species

I spend all this money at stores, preening and pimping myself up, not to have you come along and rain all over my parade

How dare you insult me with your David Attenborough like assumptions

Wow, then I guess I should just ignore all the women at my school who are constantly flirting with me and throwing themselves at me. I guess I should stop sleeping in girls dorms and hooking up with them. I guess I should stop dancing with girls at parties, I guess I should stop going on dates. Because apparently I'm not "genetically programmed" to do that kind of thing, so I should just stop pretending like all these girls at my school are actually attracted to me, because clearly they aren't because I have aspergers.

I also guess I should stop hanging out with all my friends too huh?


Rule No. 1 for Aspie teens: Never trust anyone.

then why visit a forum if you dont need others?

or are not programmed

to relate with others....

Maybe its more difficult, or comes less naturally

The aspie tendency to prattle on and on is a obvious attempt to relate, its just we are really bad at it

I guess I just don't see how eliminating the forum would make anything better.

Those who don't want to read it don't have to.

Those who enjoy it will want it to stay so they can continue to enjoy it.

Seems like a fairly simple concept....

The majority of the posts I see here are from desperate men who are unable to live up to "being normal". If you are tormented by your sex drive, either stick to porn or get chemically castrated! Quit bothering people with the fact that you can't get laid. Yes, I know I've been the same way, but I've accepted that I'm unable to get anyone into bed.


Really? well you have fun with that....I think I will continue acknowledging that I can have friends, date, have sex and if I wanted have children but I don't want children. I personally do not enjoy being lonely.

Do you also not believe in teaching language? It is the exact same premise. Most animals are born knowing their language instinctively. Humans are taught language. Now simply apply this concept to aspies vs NTs for body language, etc.


I don't believe that one can learn to be social or to get friends.


I am not very social, and I have friends...but I make real friendships not surface friendships that require me to act a certian way.
