what polls are you talking about - I've not seen those polls, or can't think what you are referring to - would you please link to the polls you are quoting so that I can see what you mean?

also, what are "popular' and "unpopular" wp ladies? On first glance that to me sounds like some sort of arbitrary popularity contest you made up in your head and are quoting as if it is common knowledge. I have enough trouble deciding who is popular in the NT world, how on earth do you assign popularity on WP??

'' people with ASDs are disproportionately single compared with the rest of the population. Only 32.1 per cent of those surveyed indicated they ever had a partner, while 9 per cent stated they were currently married. In the general population, meanwhile, about half of all adults are married.''

I use popular and unpopular more like a slang
popular:people who can and often get dates
unpopular:people who can't or rarely get dates.

Hmm, I don't think "popular" and "unpopular" are very good expressions to use. Sounds a bit judgemental and can get people angry if they are sensitive already.

warning:wp polls are not a scientific poll,we do have
nt's,self diaganois,other similiar conditions:ADD,bipolar,etc.
who are also members of wp.
so the results from wp polls are just based on members
who chose to vote on the poll,not a true random
sample size survey for people with ASD.

OK, so basically, you have to remember to use the disclaimers such as this one:

BEFORE you post a question and be sure to remember to use the words in a commonly acceptable way, because when you

people jump to wrong conclusions and start assuming you have meant something else and have deliberately set out to upset people.

I don't know if this helps or not, but I for one now feel at peace that I know where you are coming from. Sort of.

I'm single.

And I'm female.

But I'm probably the most unavailable single woman ever.

I'm technically a single lady. I suspect I'm a little older than most of the guys on here, though (I'm 33), but yeah.
