Parents not letting me go out?

I've gotten a good amount of friends. They are good friends and they understand me. But the thing is, my friends would ask me to come out with them on a Friday night or a Saturday night. Movies, u18 raves, whatever other fun stuff. But lots of thing my parents don't let me do. They give me a 7:00pm curfew which I think is ridiculous and on Friday and Saturday nights they like to lock me in the house by myself while they go out and have fun. Now my friends don't bother to ask me to come out with them anymore because my parents don't let me out. They probably think I don't want to go out. I had some other friends who always asked me to come to party's with them and raves but now they don't talk to me anymore because I don't go out with them because I can't and some of my friends didn't go to seniour school and got jobs so I don't see them anymore because I simply can't. I'm 17 and I'm sure I should have a lot more freedom, this puts me at a huge social disadvantage then everyone else, I'm an aspie and I also have parents that don't let me go out. By the time I turn 18 I'm probably going to have no friends and theres gonna be no point going out. Anyone else have a problem like this? Any advice on what I can do?
 
I'm in a similar situation, but only because if I ever go out it's with one of my parents or some other family member since all my friends have lives of their own and are usually too busy to do anything with me. I'm not sure if I have any real advice to offer you but what I want to do is get a job just so I can get out of the house more. A job might not always be fun for most people, but I think I'd enjoy it... *shrugs*
