Well, I have Asperger's and I'm a heteroromantic asexual. I am also a male, if it's of any importance (I'm guessing it is, since I saw people talking about it in some of the posts here).

Ok I suppose I will respond to the thread of the undead (thread necromancy anyone?). I am a heteroromantic asexual but having been married have had sexual relations to please my past wives (2). I seriously could do without sex for the rest of my life. I do like the other romantic things like hugging, cuddling, and occasional kissing. I do prefer sleeping alone however. I very much dislike sharing my covers and will steal them every time!

I'm asexual.
I kinda find some sex acts disgusting to even think about. I've had sex once several years ago, and I would have absolutely no problem with the idea of never having sex again.

I think asexuality in Asperger's is related to a sane person's likely reaction to a hypersexual society.
Spot on.

I am not but I do see sex as a huge complex added to people's lives. I would happily go without forever as it just seems alll a bit too much tbh, even though I have a sex drive and have sexual desires.
