...The " Getting to Know You " line , IIRC , is an all-purposes - maybe a stick one ? - line .
Maybe some people would claim offense , or at least " I'm just not interested " to a post there about it...And , some who might be interesting , I thinkseth , might not look again at the " GTKY " thread . |

I was inviting you to come to the older Aspies' Cafe (the Dino ExCafe) and get to know us.
The Link is here--> This is the Link <--That was the Link

| Hi Drillbit. Yes, there are many lbgt aspies. I am certainly gay, quite likely aspie (not dx'd as of yet). The Asperger's diagnosis is rather recent, so people in our age group are only diagnosed as adults. |

Welcome Drillbit
The way I understand it is that aspies are more willing to be on a spectrum of GBLT rather than strickly strait or gay. I think it has something to do with a need to have the most precise answer. Or it could just be me.
I for one am at about 10 on a 0 ... 100 scale, with 0 = likes girls, 100 = likes guys |

| I have a question. Are all gays & lesbians offended / repulsed by religion? |

Hi all,
to Bazza: Thanks for the welcome, I have been a longtime lurker, not poster, because I'm not super social, even in anonymous cyberspace.javascript:emoticon(' ')
silent
to slowmutant: There is just as much religious/spiritual variety among gays/lesbians as there is in the straight world.javascript:emoticon(' ')

Yes, welcome to WP Wood. Sorry, missed you there, hehe. I'm a bit of a lurker myself. I have phases of posting and phases of being not very social at all. (Hiding, lol)
tamarind, a warm welcome to WP
Could someone tell me what LGBT means please. |

Thank you. It was an innocent question, not meant as sarcasm. |
