touchy subject

Longman I see what you mean about social groups and AS but how do you find a mate/lover/your ideal person unless you make some kind of effort to make contact? Do you do internet dating? There must be a spark between two people in the first place. I would much rather my son fall in love with someone he knows of through a group or friends rather just meeting them at the train station, pub, supermarket for example.

I will introduce, give my son lots of opportunity to mingle and have that chance. If he is not interested no problem. I'd much rather he try all the things non disabled do. Surely he doesn't have to be sexually disabled too.

A lack of comprehension of what AS is about - yep I hold my hand up to that one, still struggling after three years I don't mind saying I need educating here.

As far as I can see, it's nothing simpler than boy meets girl no taboo and no politics ect. There's no right and no wrong. If he had a girlfriend they can explore, dealing with and respecting the sensory issues together for each other and that will be between those two people only - whatever their sexual orientation.
