Autism is bad DNA & most do not have good jobs; hence the reason few are attracted to Autistic guys. It is subconscious for the most part.

I think men have the same subconscious drive as the only ones you see seeking out weak DNA women are weak DNA men.

Indeed, they shouldn't. To make such decisions,
when clearly a member wishes to start another
thread would violate the basic philosophy here.

Rather, this is the type of thing that we the membership
should attempt to enforce, by cross linking when we see
similar threads.

I find it really funny the way people on this forum talk about the opposite sex as though they were animals in a lab.


My new boyfriend is very sweet. The trouble is that I don't think he understands my need for independence and time alone. I don't think he believes I like him, and because of that I'm already starting to like him less. In fact, I am starting to think I should be concentrating on formulating my DJ sets.

I met someone who wasn't a wimp or a jerk recently. Why did he have to live in another bloody city?

I think it was your choice of language. 'fertile', 'hormonal', 'socio economic', 'testosterone count'.....??? It read a bit like one of my open university essays, and I don't know if you could/should tackle this issue in that kind of way.



like it or not , humans are animals .

And your boyfriend should be less sweet and 'more jerk' so you can love him more ...you have just proved Anubis's point :lol:

Btw , the thread was started by a girl ....so go figure.



I don't want him to be 'more of a jerk'. I just don't want him to be constantly questioning my affections for him, because it's exhausting, time consuming, and boring. As Elvis would have said 'we can't go on together with suspicious minds'.

I have an answer that is strictly 100% my opinion.

From what I have learned growing up in America: People basically are only attracted to other people solely because of the way they look; keeping money completely out of the equation.

It goes both ways: Boys want the girls who look like models, and girls want the guys who are strong and are athletic.

That has been going on for a long time and I don't think it will change because the media in America supports these kinds of things.

Not to mention: Not many people in America form opinions of their own. They rather agree with the media or social norm than go against it and be considered an outcast.

End Results- Superficial/Shallow society.

I don't look like a model and I get laid sometimes. How does that fit into your theory?

As an exercise in college English composition, we had to write what we thought was a JERK. It was interesting to hear what everyone had to say. It was compared to an article written by some journalist.

The definition comes down to this: "A jerk is someone who doesn't see himself as others do."

Isn't this a common trait of Aspies?

My thread is not a clone thread. It was made in response to this one. This one seems to be full of guys generalising about women. I thought it might be interesting to ask my fellow women straight out what they liked.

I can assure you that looks ain't enough.
Yeah, looks are important, but I've seen
plenty of not-attractive (to me at least) but
more aggressive males do just fine. Indeed,
mismatched couples, in BOTH directions, seem
more the norm, in terms of appearance.

Autistic/Aspergic people can be confident in their own right. I think it might just baffle people when there's such a condition thrown into the mix too...
tbh I'm setting out to break this usual process with my quirky differences. ;)
I'm in a project here and persuing my own different way of getting through this.
The hopes of an able Autistic/Aspergic person are never dead - sometimes it's more a dormant volcano that just struggles to errupt...
I'm nowhere near the big elite at this stuff but I do feel that our chances of success lie in our quirks.
It's so hard to exploit your strengths sometimes but... in your own time. :)
I'm sorry if this doesn't sound in any way true... and if it don't make much sense lol.
