    Need help approaching therapy

    I have said previously that my past has come back to haunt me in negative ways, and as I prepare myself to work on this with a therapist, I can use advice on how to approach this. The following is very hard for me to write. My social issues growing up in the '60s and 70s: Friends were...

    Pride Month and autism

    It's ironic that I am posting about Pride Month, since only 5 people know that I am bisexual, but I'm curious about knowing who here identify themselves as LGBTQ+

    My Thoughts as An Autistic Queer Person

    I feel like my Neurodivergency and Queerness is linked. My Queerness is Autistic, and my Autisticness is Queer. Because of this, I am going to add Autigender as a label to describe my gender ID. Autism strongly effects my gender identity, so my gender identity is Autistic. I am Autigender. Don't...

    [Not written by me] Source: Why We Need to Respect Sexual Orientation, Gender Diversity in Autism —————————— Our culture suffers from an ‘eternal child’ bias — the reluctance to acknowledge or see individuals with developmental differences as mature and capable of self-determination. This bias...

    I think most people are secretly bisexual

    I’ve had that thought since forever and I have never shared it, this is the first time. I believe most people are secretly bisexual, and that there’s just a minority that is 100% heterosexual and 100% homosexual. I know it’s a polemic thought, that’s why I’ve never shared it before, but this...

    masturbation /self-regulation

    Gosh, this is a tough thing to bring up in a forum, and I hope no one takes offense. It's just that I have tried to find information on the Internet to determine if, in fact, there is any reason to suspect that my compulsive masturbation as a young child might have been attributable to being on...

    Getting sexual needs met-sensitive

    I'm desperate for Aspies' input. Need help in how to communicate about sex and my needs. I am very attracted to my boyfriend. Once I told him that and he said "no one has ever told me that. I don't know how to respond." I said "you don't have to. I'm just telling you." He cracks me up...

    Ask a pansexual and gender fluid Aspie!

    Since I was a child, I've been kind of "bullied" because I seemed to be the lesbian girl who wouldn't understand what girls were talking about and wouldn't ever use makeup. I also tended to hang out more with the boys, as they were easier to understand and were sometimes funnier. But that didn't...
