I went to the Hellfire Club twice in 1982, at age 21.

You know; to meet engineer/scientist ladies, or green women if lucky.

To complete this impressive poll.


It takes more time for women to produce a child then for a man to do his part. For that reason the Mars colony should have a woman to man ratio of ten to one. This will allow us to settle the great red frontier more quickly.


Many of us call our John Thomases 'the great red frontier'.

:lol:

I was there at least twice, maybe 3 or 4 times, in 1982, at age 23-24.

I was a short, somewhat thin guy who wore aviator glasses. I didn’t really stand out from the crowd. You wouldn’t have noticed me.

But we could have seen each other without noticing each other.

Old people can be really horny and kinky…trust me. I went to the Hellfire Club, which is where people roleplay and have orgies. There were plenty of people in their 60s and above there.

And young people could be really sexually conservative.

Old people’s sex lives are just like young people’s sex lives. Both vary greatly. Men and women can still frequently derive consummate satisfaction from sex.


Shhhh!
It is a state secret that older people are interested in sex, also.
We don't talk about these things with the kids. 8O :mrgreen:

Step 1: invent a Luvin Whistle. Think dog whistle but with sexy, human, undertones.

Step 2: get plenty of rest, hydrate, do some stretching.

Step 3: blow whistle.

Nope....not even close to Tom Cruise in terms of looks...

I seem like more the Robin Williams type.

The best way for autistic people to find a partner is through places where you find people you’re more likely to be compatible with.

As a generalization, this doesn’t apply to everyone, autistic people tend to be introverted and a bit nerdy. I doubt most of us would be successful at the bar, nightclubs, or Tinder because those avenues are so out of our element. Meeting someone online through a game or some sort of niche dating site might be a good option for a lot of autistic people.

If you’re religious, you might try church as church people can be really nice. Although in my experience, church girls tend to be traditional and want traditional guys, in terms of lifestyle and looks.
