I am curious, because I am autistic. And because I'm good looking, men don't really realize what a relationship with me, would really look like.

Yes

No

I prefer not to

I prefer autistic people

Depends on what their autism affects and if they're high functioning or not, but yes. As long as the girl has similar views, interests, sense of humor, aligning goals, is sexually compatible, and I'm physically attracted to her, I wouldn't care if she's autistic or not.

It has become an extremely wide spectrum. I wouldn't rule it out.

I would consider dating an autistic guy, but the problem with dating autistics is most of them never shut up about autism and "neurodivergence." It's like autism is their entire identity.

Well... it kinda is. And we never shut up about most things we find interesting haha. But I get it! It's not for everyone and I know we can be diffciult.

You're arguing my point.

Fair

No, because they have this obsession with having to tell people they are autistic every 5 minutes.

[Anonymous]

Of course not.

Probably not
