Love, Sex and Long-Term Relationships: What People With Asperger Syndrome Really Really Want

What are the motivations and wishes at the back of dating offerings and sexual behaviour? Are they very varied for people with Asperger Syndrome (AS) than for an individual else? Does having severe sensitivity to actual contact or an above standard desire for solitude switch one's expectation of relationships or sexual adventure?

Sample text

It is undoubtedly one of the driving forces behind the so common thieving gangs of adolescents. These delinquent activities very often end in masturbation in common, or other sexual excesses, which give all the more satisfaction because the feeling of guilt has been increased by the crime. Even more common are more or less criminal onanists, especially among boys. I will only point to the well-known stories of Mark Twain, such as Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. T o give another example from my own practice: one patient's customary fantasy during many years of puberty was that he breaks into a rich man's house and purloins his treasures; then on the way out he notices the sleeping daughter of the house and rapes her.

It was soon elucidated that the third experiment was chronologically the oldest, somewhat later came the first, and only then—to fill up the gaps, so to speak— came the second. Thus in the third the sensuality is only thinly disguised by a veneer of ethics. This fantasy—^stripped of its moral disguise—is exceedingly frequent in girls, and is known as the prostitution fantasy. The undefined number of men always signifies, as we so often see in analyses, a definite man. The reason why I mention these 'experiments' is the circum­ stance that an individual man makes his appearance (in the first experiment) which is far rarer, and further, his identity could fairly easily be established.

A price must be paid by all those who take part in education: by the com­ munity, by the teacher, and above all by the children. Ill THE ADOLESCENT'S FIGHT MASTURBATION AGAINST 1 (1934) i I T is undeniable that in the last two or three decades it has become possible to deal with sexual problems far more frankly than was formerly the case. This change from a hypocritical glossing-over of facts to an open approach is to a considerable degree due to the influence of psycho-analysis. A l l the same, it is still almost impossible to obtain reliable data about masturbation.
