How severe is her autism? I mean if you mean something like ADHD than I certainly wouldn't have problem with it at all. If you mean something like down syndrome than certainly not.

Would you have kids with it?
Sorry for the double post but excuse me, "it"?

Down Syndrome and ADHD are types of Autism?

No that wasn't what I meant. If your talking about ADHD, than yes ADHD is in fact a very mild form of autism. Down syndrome however, is not. I was just giving an example of severe and un-severe mental illnesses.
I could handle light personality disorders or dating a complete airhead, but a person diagnosed as mentally challenged... I don't think so. I've done community service for these people for years, and they're incredibly nice, but not the kind of people I'd want to start a relationship with.
Aye, it would really hard to find a starting point, if there would be one at all.I could handle light personality disorders or dating a complete airhead, but a person diagnosed as mentally challenged...

It depends on the severity of the mental retardation and how long I've known the person. So for example, if my pretend wife got in a horrible accident and was left mentally disabled, I wouldn't walk out on her.
Depends what you mean by "mentally challenged", but most likely not. To have a meaningful relationship with someone, I need them to be on my level intellectually. I don't want that to sound elitist, but I'd like to be able to hold a good and insightful conversation with her.
well if the girl is what i imagine when i think "mentally challenged", then no. but there was this girl that went to my school and she got in a bad car accident that made her brain messed up and she like had trouble walking, basically she had enough wrong with her so that she needed a caregiver to always be with her. but she was hot as ****.
Depends on the situation MrLionsExactly. I find it ignorant how many comments there are with a straight "no' answer. There are hundreds of mental illnesses and MOST have nothing to do with how smart or dumb you are. Hint, most of the people that comment here have mental illnessess : ) . lol
Autism I could live with. Bipolar disorder I could live with.
But serious retardation, that's a tough one, and if I dump her I look bad.
But I don't care about looking bad, I'll probabaly just want to bang her.
Yes, yes I would.
Well, autism isn't exactly "retarded", is it? Because, like, I know an autistic dude and he seems cool enough. He's a little bit weird, but he doesn't seem particularly dumb or anything.Topic, also, how mentally challenged would she have to be for you to date her?

Anyway, mental retardation is out. Firstly, it seems like it'd be hard for me to interact with them on any kind of deep and meaningful level. And that's also considering if I'm having sex with a woman who has the mind of a 12 year old, then it's like I'm having sex with a 12 year old. And that's...pretty ****ed up, even if the woman is actually 45 years old.
Now VERY mild retardation is a POSSIBILITY, but still extremely unlikely.
More likely is that the woman is still on my level of intellect, but has some kind of psychological or emotional disorders. I'm willing to do that, depending on the degree to which the disorder in question is a huge problem for me.
