I vote yes, so I can find it on a keyword search. :D But then you might not want to be out about it, and maybe you don't want to have to bother to explain it to an nt. And maybe it would put them off.... So what do you think?

I don't use personal ads. I have pretty much written off the idea of dating, anyway. I feel I can participate well in every aspect of life except that one.

Argh...

No wonder I can't find anyone in my area...

But this does bring up a good point: if you don't want to explicitly list it for privacy reasons, how do you actually get around that and list something so that people looking for it can find you?

You could think of many amusing things that ASD stands for other than Awesomely Sexy Disorder.
