I find that community interesting and I wonder who on these boards is lgbt and autistic.

It's not rare here at all.

I'm a heterosexual male, though.

Not I, but there are quite a few LGBT folks on WP, including some rather high profile folks ( including the individual with the highest post count of all on WP).

I'm surprised that none have responded to you yet.

We have - here - viewtopic.php?t=302189.
This person is just really interested. I'm obviously autistic and genderqueer trans.

Straight M, but support and encourage individual preferences and beliefs. However, don't go crossing the line and try to sway people who don't like what you like. That's not moral, or cool.

My two cents....

I'm a bisexual polyamorous male.

Polyamorism is great, and I personally subscribe to the idea. But my wife is not. But alas; I shall not allow myself to be labeled as some type of glutton or cheater, just because I believe one can "love" more than one. And no one else should either.

This is where people who try to forcefully strip all evolutionary gender roles fail; they fail to understand that not everything can be a two-way street - otherwise the world could never properly function as a democratic and industrial society.

Democratic society? ... You're from the United States, right? Well, they're a Constitutional Republic, not a Democracy.

Well the post was kind of a loose referral to the ultimate destination of mankind, not my current locale. Your inquisitiveness is great - keep it up!

I suspect I am asexual and panromantic. I'm not entirely sure about the romantic part, though. The way I experience attraction is kind of weird.

Same for me but I'm also sort of on the asexuality spectrum & asexuals are kind of allies with the LGBT community.

Lots of trans people are on the spectrum. I'm trans. I'm not straight either. :mrgreen:
