you just have to find someone who wants to hookup...

That's the problem. Most aspie guys don't have the advanced social skills (and in my case, don't have the looks either) needed to find a one-night stand. So finding someone to hook up with is actually harder than finding a relationship. I use a good substitute for one-night stands: escorts :D. No skills necessary whatsoever; just time, money, and willingness to take that step.

Actually considered that,
as a relationship, a couple
of times. I found that prostitutes
tend to be so disgusted with most
men, that they find something like
me refreshing.

i'd say that most aspie guys do have the skills to get free sex.

I think most people are drunk when this happens because they are actually uncomfortable with being sexual(or promiscuous in this case), and need to have multiple drinks in them to engage in that type of behavior. I would love to go to a sober bar, where they don't serve alcohol. I guarantee there would be a lot less sex at the end of the night.

I used to hear about teenagers going to a juice bar when I was in school. I wonder if they still have them, and if older people go too. How about a coffee shop?
