Alex can we please have a forum for older aspies over 30yrs old? If there is not enough room for another forum I would suggest getting rid of the women's forum because it is over-run with men anyways. If we have a place for older aspies then no one will feel excluded like they do now.

Women's forum doesn't mean women only, it means topics relating to women. Don't be so exclusive.

I find the men's and women's forums pretty helpful. Wouldn't really like to see them go.

Still, there does seem to be a pretty strong desire for a fogie's forum.

I think something like that would be cool.

I would keep the women's forum though.

Except the one guy who kept trolling it kind of put me off tot he women's forum.

I haven't been to that forum since I became a mod, so I don't know if he's still around. Maybe I should check :twisted:

Yes, that would be nice if 30+ year old aspies had their own forum. In fact, maybe someone should start a whole new message board for old aspie fogies. Sort of an "Asperger's elder council," to keep you out of us young'un's hair. :wink:

I'd like to see a forum for older people. there's so much school/college/parents stuff here that's irrelevant to older members.

lol

not old enough for the Dino-Aspie cafe?

I think there is a lot of overlap b/w the "adult", "Womens" and "Mens" forums. The "Adult" could be changed to an over 35's (young whipersnappers like Apartura will have to wait until they are old enough)

Nah, I think an 18+ forum is a good idea. Keeps the dirty stuff
in its place.
