I don't know what the statistics are. I haven't heard of a sex survey that is exclusively for aspies. However, too many people to count post here and have had sex. I lost my virginity at the age of 21. I had girlfriends before that and did other sexual stuff. Based on my experience, having AS is not automatically an impediment to getting sex. There are other factors involved (where you live, what you look like, dumb luck).

Just like in the general population, some Aspies remain virgins for a little while; some lost their virginity at a relatively young age.

Sometimes, I wish I could become a virgin again, and start all over!

I know he's right.

As a teenaged virgin I had serious concerns about whether I'd ever get laid.

I've since had more sex than a retired pornstar.

AS itself is not an automatic barrier to sex. Far from it.

Agreed

Op: It really depends on the type of person, and their situation. While autism may cause some commutation issues. Its still possible to find love. Commutation is key into any relationship. but its just that with us asipes. We need to work a bit more on understanding these little commutation quarks.

Yep...we are at somewhat of a disadvantage socially.

What we have to do is ACCENTUATE OUR STRENGTHS to offset that disadvantage.

Once I read a joke - "If since your last sex there was more time then from birth to first sex - could I be considered virgin again?"
That's more and more like my situation - last time I had sex 5 years ago and now I even fail in dating girls. So this is also possible variant - technically not die a virgin but in fact have no relations with girls for most of life even doing lots of efforts.

No but it's infinitely more complicated for us to forge connections (I'm talking from an outlook that isn't interested in casual sex) but those paths do exist if you take the tributaries between that resonate enough to lull you out of the tundras that can settle.

being an aspie myself,the way that i see that NT Women,and Girls (Big,Chubby,Plus-Size) that are rejectful of any guy with Aspergers,basically because of their social interaction difficulties,severely awkward to clumsy social appearance,lack of social skills and they want nothing to do with them because of it,Yeah,they do remain virgins for life.

Meh, getting laid is for eggs and carpets as far as I care.

IMO the measure of a man is in what he's accomplished with his life, not how many endorphin hits he's gotten.

Sex is supposed to feel great, make you feel like you can kick the world's butt, etc etc... snorting cocaine might feel great too, but that doesn't make me want to run right out and do a line.

Would it make you feel better if I flew over and had sex with you in the summer holidays?
