Autism and sexual desire

I wondered wether there’s something in being on the autism spectrum and having reduced sexual desire-not come across anything in my reading yet so wondered what people’s experiences are? Oh and asking as a woman too. Thanks

  • That's probably why there might be so many autistic horn dogs supposedly. Its not due to their autism its their ADHD and so even people with just ADHD can have the same problem. Makes me wonder just how many so called 'autistic traits' are actually due to other comorbid conditions.  I have to admit this is a post with a substantial amount of interest in it by people.  Being hypersexual means you have a condition not that your just open and liberal.

  • It's very telling that this study seems to have a real problem with people accessing pornography - I wonder which church-backed pressure group paid for it?

    The whole problem with humans is we deny our basic purpose - to survive and procreate - so everyone is trying to judge things that are completely natural.      In the wild, access to food or sex may be extremely limited - so as a species, we're designed to grab all we can when it's available.  Smiley
