My girlfriend is also hypersexual on the spectrum i apologize on her hehalf too. I am curious not many spectrumites inbetween most either asexual or hypersexual its weird.You dont have to apologize for how you are
Weirdly, I don't know. I can be both. Absolutely fine without for years, but from what I recall, when I'd meet someone it can go into overdrive into hyper territory for quite some time.
My parents were very religiousand strict anything talking about sexuality is a no no and a beating follows, even masturbation its a sin id get beaten if caught i burn in hell im evil etc anything sexual equals bad but they are gone now so i got the courage to ask such questions simply out of curiosity.It sounds like you come from a very different culture than I do. Where I live no one gets beat up for asking about biology. It's a pg13 site here, I think it's ok to talk about sex generally, here on this site. I'm not sure how to explain it.
Maybe you can be careful not to offend, use medical and technical terms generally, speak in "I" not "you". There is a adult discussion area, and an area that is not viewable to the public.
Something about what you said earlier is troubling to me. I can speak to western american cultural values in general, but little else from personal experience.
Unless the parents decide to opt out, all children are educated about sex and babies and diseases several times in public schools. The course is typically a semester I think and as I recall occurs at 6th, 8th, 9th and 10th grades.
Much of the curriculum is focused on safer practices, and prevention of disease. Cycles of life and family planning are also covered. I believe that the courses are separated by gender. I think that there is typically a hands on event using an artificial life like phallus(dildo) and condoms, so people can learn how to use the condoms properly. I dont remember masturbation being a topic, but this was all 35 years ago for me.
My impression is that auto sexual people are ridiculed and discriminated against and that they are generally in the closet. References in crude and suggestive humor about Male masturbation are common here, and typically both objectifying and diminutive. It would not be acceptable socially for a man to admit being autosexual.
Usually spectrumites such as i its either hypersexual or asexual, i get curious about it not much in between, im sorry for being curious i cant help it i try too i simpy get curious wanting to learn please dont hit me.Brain doesnt shut off always curious wantin g to learn more about stuff sometimes cant sleep keep thinking so have to take sedatives to shut me up and curiousity.
I once had a relationship with a girlfriend who I often wonder may have been hypersexual.
If anything I suspect it would have made it difficult to maintain that relationship over time. But I felt that it was my autism that doomed it, at a time when neither her or myself had a clue about my neurological disposition. She was with me 24/7, even at work and I never had any sense of solitude which eventually got to me.![]()
My first wife was hypersexual, to the point where she strayed outside the marriage. That led to the marriage ending, as I could not trust her.
Sadly that's precisely what I was contemplating in the likelihood that I could not have indefinitely sustained that relationship, autistic or not.
