| A lot of people with poor relationship skills still desire sex; asexuals don't desire sex at all. Is it so hard to believe that sexual desire is a spectrum and some people naturally have less of it than others? But you're not claiming to be "on the spectrum;" you say you're pitch-black, absolute-ze... |

Then apply: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes'_theorem The probability of some internet moron making snarky comments over an extremely vaguely-worded hypothesis of mine is ... |

| I don't see how you can all say this is a hoax so quickly. I don't quite believe it myself, but I'm not going to past judgement until either substantal research or signifacantly more cases are reported. Hooray for healthy skepticism! :) I never heard from the Snopes people, and there's still no men... |

| ...There are less patients on the spectrum than not. That means the majority are neurotypical ergo if the infection favours anyone, it favors NT. If the correct basic maths is applied where the only assumption is the physical laws then no, it won't cause a whole lot of trouble.... This is where you... |

| Whether the sample size is large enough or not, the fact remains that if 10% were on the autistic spectrum then 90% were not ergo the infection (if it is such) favours neurotypicals. Amazing what a little basic maths can do. Careful, kitten. The infection is not known to correlate with deafness. Do... |

| The simplest of googling will prove that I am right about parasomnia and exerything else. Here's a little help. As you can see, a little latin does in fact tell us all about the word. Para- actually means "incorrect" or "abnormal" in this instance: abnormal sleep. It's a fancy-pants way of saying "a... |
