And I'm right, because after all, thats my opinion, and opinions can't be wrong
Good example. I figure there's two kinds of opinions. There's one's own taste. And there's opinions about what the facts are. Sometimes it's not clear which a statement is. If I say "The Beatles are the greatest rock band ever" does that mean the Beatles are my favorite band, or does that mean I think that in some sort of objective sense, the Beatles are the greatest, regardless of if I personally like them? With the later type of opinion, some things are open to debate (or are the Rolling Stones the greatest rock band ever), some are pretty much settled matters (the sky is blue on a clear day).
I agree. Opinions can be right or wrong because many of them are tied to things that are real and not just taste, I don't think this is a stupid thing to say at all!
I'm not asexual and have even had some dates but have had no luck making relationships last. I think it's harder to date outside of woman + man because there are fewer people who might be interested, and you have to say that you're interested because it isn't assumed. (I don't know when it's appropriate to state my sexuality, though that's not only an autistic problem.) But women I think are easier to talk to, they're more likely to overlook my trouble with communication, and less likely to start seeing me as "little sister" instead of romantic prospect.
Callista, sorry that you've had trouble being taken seriously. What you say makes a lot of sense to me, and I think must be less rare than it seems from what people declare.
