Men don't know how they are

Yes, folks on the autism spectrum will sometimes do social things that are just wrong. In other words, they do things deliberately, but because they are faking it or following a "script," they are clueless as to to the consequences of what they are doing. Or maybe they only learned part of it, and hope to learn the rest of it later.

If I'm flirting with a woman, it's always because I do fancy her in some way.

Knowing specific circumstances, most times, prevents the flirting from reaching beyond the casual stage.

I'm in a library environment with lots of attractive Library Ladies (I've always been attracted to that type). Here, I must restrain my desires, be civilized, never go beyond the quaint and subtle.

In this thread it seems that flirting is the way men relate to women

Yes, men will sometimes do such things
Yes, even deliberately
But why, that's the question
because it is their way of doing things? (Fnord)
because they're following a "script"? (BTDT)
why not just because they saw beauty in a woman?

I am damned with this autism spectrum-something
But fotunately I am not blind for good looks
