Some do, not all do.: Higher than usual or not, people with autistic spectrum are likely to have some difficulty interacting with another in such a heightened sensitive situation. Even people without that burden often run into difficulty with sex. Seek real-life guidance and be careful so that no one gets hurt - emotionally or physically.

Hypersexuality is : Not a core symptom of autistic spectrum disorder. No peer-reviewed study shows an association between hypersexuality & asd. Atypical interest in sexual behavior may be seen in children & teens who have been molested & in those with bipolar depression. Those with tourette syndrome may have language &/or behaviors mistaken for hypersexuality. People with ASD can have these disorders, as well.
