Doing a survey here on the link between AS and sexual orientation/identity, mostly to make a point to someone else on an online forum.

(Sexual orientation refers to that using biological gender as referrence point.)

I consider myself bisexual based not on my current relationship status, but on my preference. I consider myself bisexual and not pansexual or polysexual or whatever because I prefer men who are mostly masculine (physically and personality-wise) and women who mostly feminine (same deal). I think people who are emotionally more balanced between stereotypic gender qualities are not necessarily any more or less masculine or feminine. I think gender is more in how a person presents oneself; thus a sensitive man is not "feminine" in my book, nor an aggressive female "masculine."

I think I'm sexually more attracted to women, and more or less equally romantically attracted to both men and women. I'm currently married to a man who's pretty much a typical view of masculinity; beard, hairy chest, gruff mannerisms, protective hard-worker, etc. He's also a sensitive care-giver personality who likes romantic comedies just as much as action flicks, soft, sensual textiles, and art. I think he's emotionally balanced but over-al he's very male. If we were to divorce I would likely pursue a relationship with a woman who is similarly emotionally-balanced but overly female.
