Anyone here just want a girl for affection?

thats also BS

You are entitled to your opinion.

No it really is BS, regardless of whether you are talking about physically or mentally. My best aspie friends are both manly as hell (though...one of them is a chick) and I know I'm the least feminine guy my girlfriend has been with....she complains about it XD.

It's not just males, but females too. I've seen it mentioned by psychologists and in my experience with others with AS, most seem to be somewhat androgynous. Take this article on Asperger's that my friend posted on facebook not long ago http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/aspergirls/201010/why-people-aspergers-seem-so-awkward-around-others
At one point it describes aspie males as so: AS men may seem effeminate or gentle. I believe my psychologist wrote the same thing about me and mentioned that it's common among people with AS.

If that doesn't describe you, then ok, but it isn't entirely BS.

I have never, ever heard of that
nor have I heard any man with AS describe themselves like that (minus homosexuals and such)
just because you read something, doesn't make it true

I'm not saying I'm effeminate to the point that I'm almost of a different sexual orientatation, I'm just saying that my masculinity is somewhat muted compared to that of many of my peers. They stare at boobs and become obsessed with sex. They also tend to speak loud or harsh at times. I'm quiet, softspoken, and don't really have much of an interest in staring at woman like they're objects. That's what I mean. And I'm not making generalizations about my peers, I'm presenting my experiences in high school. I don't talk much, so instead I observe and listen.

no thats crap too, AS doesn't make anyone immune from sexual attraction, infact I'd say AS men tend to think about sex more because the rarity they actually get it (if ever)

if you're basing what you think AS men are like just because you were a certain way...well thats not a smart thing to do
its flawed, untrue and goes against all logic about human sexuality

My two closest friends are aspies. I attend school with them and they are both like me. I have had other Aspie friends before them, and they too where like me. It does not mean they aren't into women, it's that the ones I've known personally weren't constantly salivating over them. I know aspies who are entirely the opposite exist. I know that a lot want to desperately get laid. I've never really been preoccupied with that. I never really have moments where I consider whether or not if I'll get laid before I died(like some of the people that post topics about them being whatever age and still a virgin), because I really don't care. Sometimes, I wonder if getting married or being in a relationship would get in the way with what I plan on doing with my life(devoting myself to the study of marine biology). but that's me.
And maybe looking back, some of what I said was brash and presumptuous. I'm sorry if I offended you.

saying a group is one way because 4 people you know is pretty pretentious and stupid
and will only get you flammed

Why do you have to flame me? It's much more than four people, I'll have you know, but what do you stand to gain by flaming me? Don't you have anything better to do?
